| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent The Frey 2’s were actually delivered a highly enjoyable and satisfying presentation at a fraction of the price. However I did perceive a noticeable lack of midrange clarity and air with the Frey 2’s vs the Valhalla 2’s. And a hair less speed wit... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Also Kerisabe, regarding your MacBook, not sure of WiFi streaming vs Ethernet. Try it out? Beyond that, there is a very large rabbit-hole of mods to your computer you can make to make real improvements in sound (power supply, hard disk, USB twea... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. My packing list said it included the polish cloth, and also plastic polish as well. However, no polish was included. My dealer says Gryphon told them they found that the polish they were previously including "dried out" too much and they don't h... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Interesting comments about the vocals. During my burn-in, I had thought at one point the vocals seemed very good, and highly detailed, but ever so slightly “back” in the mix. Wasn’t sure if I was imagining it so I didn’t mention. This is no lon... | |
| Innuos Zenith Backorder As mmeldogg mentioned, I am still waiting for my Zenith MKIII, impatiently. I will wait it out. The biggest shame is that Innuos’ distributor told them my order would ship in 30 days (it’s about 75 now). And, my dealer says the distributor stop... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Kerisabe, I will make a point of trying the granite thing, once I’ve sorted the direction in cables out. I don’t want to change anything else while testing different cables. I’ll have to stop by the counter-top store or Home Depot and see what I... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Congrats Kerisabe and thanks for the tips. Yes spiking my speakers to the floor is on my todo list, but it will be the final step after I get everything else right, to ensure I only need to do it once and only need to make eight holes in my floor ... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Thanks! Will be finding out the ETA on the Clarus cables shortly. I ended up ordering the power cord as well, as it is just too cheap to pass up. Weird how this loophole allows me to buy direct from the distributor at prices dealers get - I thi... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent rshad, yes more tests are coming but not 100% sure when yet. So here are the latest developments:-After trying to line up tests of the Clarus Crimson cables (purchase with 100% money back return policy) from a US-based dealer, I realized the tota... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Inna,The N.A. Gryphon distributor replied to my email in minutes and indicated they will coordinate getting demo Gryphon Power Cords and Speaker cables to my dealer for me to test.Do you know the list price of the Gryphon cords, by chance? They h... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Hi Steakster,I am interested in testing Clarus Crimson power cords AND speaker cables. Would be very interested in hearing your perspective. | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Also, regarding the Tyr 2, I’d probably just go for the Valhalla 2 over Tyr 2, if I was already about to spend that much. But hoping the Audience will come through and be what kind an looking for at a lower price when I get to test.Im also thinki... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent I would really like to test the Gryphon power cord and cables. My dealer said that wasn’t possible. Guessing Gryphon’s NA distributor is not able or willing to facilitate the demo. Maybe I’ll try contacting the distributor directly. But I’m no... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Thanks All, I am definitely taking everyone’s input into consideration. The Valhalla’s are actually quite a bit lower than why Larry quoted after the dealer discount. Also I only need 6ft per side so that helps.But due to input from others I am ... | |
| Home Demo Faceoff: Nordost / Audioquest / Transparent Hi 4425, wow, you described the EXACT same experience I had comparing the Valhalla 2’s vs others. I didn’t phrase it that way but you are spot on describing the slightly forward presentation while still being warm and musical but with less bass.I ... |
