| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Okay I thought the burn in period for my Diablo must have been complete for a while now as I hadn’t been noticing changes for a while. But today I noticed some significant improvement in the upper midrange, which has become lighter crisper and mo... | |
| Well maybe it IS my hearing I’m in my forties and my test indicates I have mild (and I’m told typical for my age) tapering of higher frequencies. Audiologist told me I may find it becomes more difficult to track conversations in noisy environments. Counter-intuitively my pr... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Integrated or Dartzeel LHC-208 Integrated with PMC Fact 12 Speakers I would have liked to have been able to test DarTZeel integrateds, and T+A as well, prior to recently purchasing my Gryphon Diablo 300... No such luck being able to test in Canada to my knowledge.Having said that I couldn’t be more pleased with th... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Regarding room treatments, I’m lucky to have what me dealer says is an ideal situation in my open concept living room. High vaulted ceilings, and no corners next to my speakers. Room to move the speakers out in the room. Listening position 2/3rds ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Thanks ricred1. I'm going to contact Clarus and see how I can get a demo of the Crimson in Canada to test against others on my list. Or see if they have a buy and return policy.One thing that may be a concern about the Crimson is, based on what ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Hi inna, yes I have an Innuos Zenith MKIII streamer on the way (it is back-ordered). Just as the Zenith MK III is apparently better than the Aurender N10 at close to half the cost, I’m hoping to find something that compares with Nordost Valhalla ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Also found this elsewhere on the forum, which almost seems too good to be true:“Old thread, but I can chime in here. The Clarus Crimson are extremely good and a bargain at their price point. I replaced a complete Nordost Valhalla and Odin setup wi... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Yep, Shunyata is another high end brand worth trying. I’m hoping to find something I like as much as the high-end / insanely priced cables that is as good. I don’t know if it exists.Another cable I came across on this forum was the Claris Crimson.... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. I agree it sounds like we have similar tastes. I’ve always been fighting that shiny-ness and that is the reason I have my current van den Hul D-352 cables. They nicely filter out harshness from lesser equipment that I had before the Diablo, wher... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Actually according to the Cable Co’s site the lending library is for domestic US customers (I am in Canada). So looks like I am stuck with demo cables my dealer can source - the likes of Nordost and AudioQuest. Many other brands too, but not one... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. mrc4u thanks for sharing; very interesting setup! I will have to try Focal speakers at some point, as my Gryphon dealer also carries them. Not sure which generation of 803’s you heard, but I also feel that the current B&W generation, while h... | |
| why so many gryphon diablo 300 integrated for sale now? The only situation in which I could see myself selling mine, other than financial disaster, is the opposite scenario where I become far, far more wealthy and can afford to move up the Gryphon chain. But these are the only scenarios that could caus... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Lak, unfortunately I have not. But others who have owned both have nudged me towards the Diablo, for better bass control for my particular speakers and the power and current reserves to suit my large room. One forum member who had owned both told ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Inna, hope you don’t have to wait too long for your Diablo 300. In terms of all the cash you can blow on cables, conditioners, and other accessories, upgrading these can yield incremental improvements. Whereas with the Diablo, even if using just t... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. If I had to guess, I might be in the top 25% :) If I was lucky enough to be in the 1% I’d have two Antileon monobloks lol! Just a lowly Gryphon integrated amp for the likes of me....I do do have an AQ diamond USB cable so don’t think that should... |
