| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. nyev, A great list of cables you are going to try out! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. | |
| VAC 160i SE vs Audio Research GSi75 Another that you may want to consider is the Octave 80se with the super black box. I was recently considering a VAC 160i, but really loved the bass control and liquidity of the Octave with my focal sopra 3s. | |
