| Metronome Le Dac 2 Review Thanks JB, I’m looking for a new career as it happens! I’m nothing to do with Metronome, btw. It’s all a genuine review of my experience. I just find it very odd that some DACs get infectiously feverish, rave reviews while this one, which is so ac... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? Robert1976 - are you replacing the Essence electronics with Boulder? Only that’s where I’d say your issue lies. I’m going through same situation with Essence right now. Did you ever try Tambaqui direct to amp? Sound is considerably more relaxed bu... | |
| WHAT HAPPENED TO SONUS FABER? Calvinj - interesting thread because I was wondering how modern SF might sound with my Gryphon gear. My note to you, though, is are you aware that Resonessence has gone? I have their stunning Mirus Pro DAC, too. | |
| Gryphon Essence Pre and Stereo Power Amp Review Sorry for delay, have been off comm's dealing with stuff. Schelle100 - correct; I mostly find little difference in heat output between Diablo 300 and Essence. But I rarely play at super-loud volumes.. Mostly around just 20. But Essence 20 seems eq... | |
| Gryphon Essence Pre and Stereo Power Amp Review 100w into 4ohm for me.. Essence sounds way more powerful than Diablo in my room. It's remarkable. ..I wrote the review before smoking the good stuff! | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 ..full write-up moved to its own post - 'Gryphon Essence Pre and Stereo Power Amp Review'. | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 Hi Schelle, no I’m afraid not. Given the strength of the Essence it must be a heck of a piece of work. It’s too big formy space even if I could afford it; which I can’t. But my boxes are sounding awesome. The weight of sound and imaging is fabulou... | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 Yes do consider carefully Audiobrian. I bought Essence because I wanted an all-Gryphon system. I have great faith in the integrity and ear of founder Flemming Rasmussen and the faultless support from their very accessible and excellent man at the ... | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 ..it's a giant; a 64-wheeled, 3-trailer juggernaut with a heart of gold as well as a most delicate side. My room is 12' x 24'. I couldn't use anymore power than this beast puts out. The 300 is wonderful. The Essence combination utterly eclipses it... | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 Sure, audiobrian. After years of trying to get different units to ‘synergise’ it’s a massive relief to just leave everything (except dac and server in my case) to Gryphon. The 300 was just superb. I didn’t really need to change; for sure adding an... | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 Gryphon Essence pre and stereo power arriving Friday; replacing a Diablo 300. I’ll report back :) | |
| Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75 For anyone in the UK, Essence makes its debut just outside London on March 21st - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/gryphon-essence-official-uk-launch-event-tickets-95221934369. I've got my ticket.. | |
| Recommend Amp and Preamp with Dynaudio Confidence 50 I have a Diablo 300. It’simply astonishing. But I tried it with Confidence 30 for a few days and, while I found the sound beautiful, airy, detailed etc it was a touch too slow; bass overhung a tad too much for me. Ultimately I preferred the timing... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Very interesting thread. But I don’t think I read anyone trumpeting the value of using more Gryphon components in the chain.. I also have the wonderful 300. Originally ran it with throwback Naim Super Lumina speaker cables and Dynaudio C60’s. Both... |
