| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 Before I tried the Vitus and Gryphon, my friend and I tried the Boulder 866 with DAC also at home with same partnering equipment. Well, Boulder is what Boulder is known for; quick, clean, clear, dynamic, drive... However I felt that harmonics were... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 Hi georgesallit325Yes, it was the RI-101 Mk2 in the comparison. Great amp!!!The shootout came about because a close buddy wanted to buy an integrated amp for his Magico S-series speakers. He has since bought the Vitus. I am happy for him! | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 I agree with eziggy above in general. Vitus RI-101 vs Gryphon Diablo 300; I just did a shoot out of both, in a domestic environment. Only the amp was the variable, all other factors remained constant in the system.If you like the Gryphon darkish,... | |
| Power Conditioner: Isotek, Audioquest or other? @coto37I have tried both brands Isotek and AQ Niagara. Both did a good job of producing good sound from the equipment, but I will choose AQ because of better built quality. The Isotek has flimsy panels, and the paintwork is average. I have more ... | |
| Cartridges: Kuzma CAR or Lyra on a 4-Point (11") arm @doverThank you for reporting back and your detailed comparison has been very helpful.- bit like a Benley Turbo vs a Ferrari.That sort of nail it on what I want. If I had just compared a Lyra to CAR50 as titled, I would have said the Lyra is a Fer... | |
| anyone compared Stillpoints and Artesania racks? After all these years, what is your view now of the Artesania Exoteryc racks? Are they good? Thank you | |
| Cartridges: Kuzma CAR or Lyra on a 4-Point (11") arm Thank you all for the comments, and especially to @jcarr for the explanation on how the Lyra could have been damaged. Much appreciated! | |
| Cartridges: Kuzma CAR or Lyra on a 4-Point (11") arm Thanks to everyone for helping me to clarify my own thoughts. At this stage, I will most probably continue heading down the Kuzma path than toward the Lyra path. However, saying that, I would like to check out the Dynavector too...I have heard Ben... | |
| Cartridges: Kuzma CAR or Lyra on a 4-Point (11") arm @rossb I found the Lyra nice but a bit too lean slightly soft. Other Lyras such as the Delos or Kleos are more dynamic but even leaner.I understand this because I felt so, too. The CAR 40 was good but a little dull.That's why I wonder if moving u... | |
| Cartridges: Kuzma CAR or Lyra on a 4-Point (11") arm Hi dover,I will be looking forward to your CAR-50 comments! ;-)Hi rossb,That's an interesting choice. What is it that you prefer the Dynavector? Just to get a rough idea.Thanks | |

| Rockport Avior 2 vs Wilson Sasha DAW Just my view from the other side of Planet Earth...Not impressed with Avior2.-slow-ish-dim, despite what people say about Berrylium. It is very different from a FOCAL berrylium which swings toward "aggression".-shut in-loose bass-"uninterested" - ... |
