Luxman L-509X
Just got mine. Everything’s great except the workmanship (SURPRISING right?) in the top grille. Looks like it’s done with a dull drill bit! LUXMAN quality?? They said it’s "NORMAL".https://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm121/douglam_photos/WhatsApp%...

Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions.

Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions.
Great thread. Now I'm more determined to join the club. LOL.BTW, anyone knows how often Gryphon updates their stuff? If my research is correct, the Diablo 300 was released around 2015? Just wondering if they will revise the 300 anytime soon?
