| Upgrade to sound quality of Dynaudio Heritage speakers I would echo @bluethinker ’s thoughts particularly with the Gryphon Diablo. I don’t have experience with the Pass Labs INT25 but suspect it’s around the Luxman’s capabilities in driving power. I recently upgraded from the Luxman L-590AXII to the G... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Thanks all. I’m delighted to have gone with the Gryphon. @bluethinker I’m not decided yet on the Luxman. Apart from the 590AXII, I have another pre/power and an integrated which are unused. I don’t have the space to set up another system so I hav... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? @inna @bluethinker update. I received the Gyphon Diablo 300 with the internal DAC module. Although the Luxman 590AXII is good, you guys are right. This beast now sounds better than the Luxman although I’m just running it in its basic configurati... | |
| Moving to separates Generally it’s all about cost. A $10k integrated is going to beat a $3k separates. If you are going from a cheap integrated to a mid level separates then you’re on the right track. However, you could also consider a mid or high level integrated as... | |
| What Speakers are you running with your Gryphon Amp? There are few who use the Diablo 300 with Marten Parker Duo speakers. Here is one. I will receive the Diablo 300 soon, speakers are Marten Duke 2 and Graham LS5/9. | |
| Diablo 333 vs 330 for SF Amati G5 Another factor which may not be important to you is the weight of the amp. I initially didn’t want to consider the 300 due to the size and weight (85 lbs) but finally caved in after much deliberation. The 333 is a whopping 112 lbs. | |
| Diablo 333 vs 330 for SF Amati G5 Obviously there are contradictory views on this one, Diablo 300 vs 333. My dealer told me although there is a noticeable difference between the 300 and 333, it’s not really significant, but there is a big difference going from the 333 to Essence p... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Thanks @bluethinker @inna Fingers crossed, I should be able to receive the amp by end of this month or early next month. I haven't adjusted my rack to accommodate the 300 and will need to get it done soon. I'll post impressions once I manage to l... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Yes, will try the Gryphon stock power cord as well. The Acrolinks are rather costly as I bought them about 4 or 5 years ago. | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? I am really happy with my Gryphon 120 - I’ve had (and have listened to) quite a few respected integrated amps, but I haven’t listened to the 300. It sounds as good as it gets in my tiny listening room, hooked up to Harbeth Super HL5plus XD - I l... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Give it some time to warm up/burn in. If it hasn’t been used for a while it should sound better after a few dozens of hours or perhaps even after a few hours, hard to know in advance. What power cord do you intend to use with it ? I would be... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Thanks all. I’m looking forward to it. It’s the costliest amp I’ve splurged on so far and although I have high expectations for it to outperform my current Luxman L-590AXII, I’m keeping them low to avoid disappointment. I’m fairly certain I would ... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? As an update, I’ve finally succumbed to the temptation. I was initially looking at the Diablo 120 but managed to secure a deal on a used but in immaculate condition Gryphon Diablo 300 with DAC module through a dealer after the owner upgraded to th... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Thanks @swede58 Yes, agreed that the Diablo 300 is great value when compared to the much costlier 333. My dealer even told me that if he were to settle with an endgame amp in his own system, it would be the 300. I used to look at Pass Labs INT60 ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. @swede58 an update. I’ve finally succumbed to the temptation. I managed to secure a deal on a used but in immaculate condition Gryphon Diablo 300 with DAC module through a dealer after the owner upgraded to the Essence. It won’t be too soon until... |
