Thieliste,

Interesting on the Humboldt.   I heard the Stern connected to a gryphon colosseum on Vivid GiyaS and thought the sound was incredible.  Actually preferred the audionet to the Gryphon pre.    What speakers did you hear the Humboldt on?

Thanks

Yes, it’s pretty expensive here.  I believe it’s $40k.   My issue is a lack of space so I may have to go and listen to one at some point.  Thx

I have Focal Evos and had the gryphon diablo 300.  Great amp but found it to be a bit aggressive for my taste.  Ended up with Octave separates which I absolutely love.  I heard the Vitus Sia-030 on YG speakers and thought it sounded fantastic!  If I was to move back to an integrated it would be the Vitus.   Good luck in your search!
