| phono preamp for Primaluna Since I have very few albums, I purchased an inexpensive Hagerman Bugle 3 MM/MC phono preamp. I have it connected to my Gryphon Diablo 300. It sounds very good for it’s price. Low noise level. Very few ticks and pops. Just have to get over the fac... | |

| looking for ideas on must have classical music Julia Fischer with the Russian Symphony Orchestra Tchaikovsky’s violin concerto in D on SACD. This is a very moving interpretation which flows smoothly. It is on the PentaTone label. I find it more expressive than the Itzhak Perlman version.Ma... | |
| Need advice on what amp to get under a budget. Plinius. I own both a 8150 and 9200 and think they are great integrated amps. My amps have never had any issues. Lost my remote controls. Have a universal RCA remote which easily coded for the Plinius remote functions. Currently there is one ... | |
| What are important features in a listening chair My custom made Gilmartin Rocking chair. Sized to my body and much, much more comfortable then it looks. Since it was sized to fit me, it offers great back support. Difficult to get visitors out of the chair once they sit down. Also looks outra... | |

I have never used an U/S cleaning machine. I did... | |

I don’t know about other sales location... | |
| why so many gryphon diablo 300 integrated for sale now? I own one. Believe me, mine is a winner. Unlikely that I will sell mine in the future, unless my wife and I go completely deaf! | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. NYEV: glad to hear you are still enjoying your Diablo. FYI mine has no “pop” at all when adjusting from a low volume. Does it occur on all inputs? Could it be the DAC or phono module? I use an external DAC and phono preamplifier with my 300.By... |
