Magico V3: Metal dome tweeter
I have a question on the V3. I noticed they were in a demo with SimAudio at Guangzhou last year. That's a bit of a departure from the usual Boulder, Tenor or Soulution electronics.By any chance, has anyone heard this combo?? Thoughts?

Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors
I see that there is a Gryphon Callisto 2200 integrated amp for sale here on A'gon (no connection to me). I would recommend checking it out for those Mira's... 
Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors
So the Gryphon is too expensive?! Then I suggest the Rockports might be too. I'll save you some time - Andy Payor will tell you he likes Gryphon. Have you checked to see what integrated amps are available on here, or as Jfz suggested, have you loo... 
Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors
Integrated amp? Try the Gryphon Diablo. Andy Payor uses a lot of Gryphon gear in this own place. I've been using the Antilean amps on a pair of Antares - Gryphon and Rockport are a great combination. 
Power cord suggestions for Gryphon Antilleon Sig.
Siltech: Ruby Mountain.Can't say if the amp is a/c cable sensitive as I've always been satisfied with this cable. I use Siltech throughout my system.I've never been able to substantiate it, but I think Gryphon's own cables are, in fact, Siltech. 
Levinson 33H vs Boulder 1060/2060??
Amen George - Gryphon is great sounding gear. 
Hall of Fame: BIGGEST BADDEST Monster Amps
I'll throw the following into the fray:Gryphon Antilean Monoblocks (175W-Class A)Boulder 2050 Monoblocks (1000W-Class A/B)Classe Omega Monoblocks (500W-Class A/B)Karan Acoustics Monoblocks (1500W-Class A/B) 
Vitus audio?
Regarding Boulder - there is an audible difference between the 1000 and 2000 series. The 2060 stereo amp is about $40K and worth every penny.I have also owned and used the Gryphon Antilean - quite different from the Boulder.Given the SF speakers, ... 
Vitus audio?
Gregger,I'm not sure that comparing the Gryphon Encore to the $50K Vitus monos. is a fair comparison. The Antilean monos are much more on par with the Vitus in terms of price and performance. Which is best will depend on the listener's preference.... 
BEHOLD - digital gear from Germany
Jjmali - ya so...why wasn't it for you? Did you REALLY hear it or were you just "passing by" and thought you'd throw in your own gratuitous potshot? It's unfortunate that in order to get you guys to come up with ANYTHING, I had to resort to taking... 
BEHOLD - digital gear from Germany
Dave - From my Google search, I see a review and numerous comments from coverage of various shows from Stereotimes, 6moons and Soundstage spanning the last couple of years.So you don't know the stuff, then my question still stands: Given that they... 
BEHOLD - digital gear from Germany
Plato - agreed on the price, that's steep admission. But nonetheless, I'm simply curious to know if anyone, other than a reviewer, has heard it. Ultimately, I tend to put more value on what private individuals have to say about a product than what...
