Yes I did Jason and I do remember you. True you did try the older version of the Gain cord which has now been replaced by a newer model. Springbok is one of the three that have them in his system. I also remember that it was a pleasure working wit...

Gosh Jason,I don't remember selling you one of my new Carbon Ribbon Gain cords that have only been in production for a month now. To my knowledge, there are only 3 people in the USA that have them.But I may be wrong.Thanks,Michael Wolff

Gryphon Callisto 2200 intergrated amp.No doubt the best amplifier, preamp, or integrated that I have heard to date. And I have heard quite a few.Best,Michael

Best Player or DAC: ceiling $3k
I second Mrmb's input on the Opus 21. Have had one now for 3 weeks in my system. Completely beautiful sounding. IMO, much better than anything I've heard for twice the price.Only thing that could need improvement is the remote, but that's no biggy...
