| 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... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? @bluethinker I’ll be using the Marten Duke 2 with the new(likely used) amp. I also own the Graham LS5/9 but have the Naim amps on these. I occasionally will rotate the amps on the speakers to see how they would perform together. A dealer offered ... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? @arafiq thanks. I don't have any doubts the Vitus is excellent, though I have a preference for amps which are not too huge or heavy. The Diablo 300 is actually the limit for me, 120 more ideal. The SS-101 would be too much for me, not only the wei... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? @bluethinker thanks again for the useful response, much appreciated. From your description it appears that the Diablo 120 may be voiced slightly to warm or soft in the high frequencies since it matches well with speakers which have a dominant or h... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Thanks @arafiq . Choices, choices.. 😅 Do you mean the RI-101 integrated? SS-101 is the power amp. I’ve earlier narrowed it down to either Vitus or Gryphon. I am aware vitus is also very good. But the price is significantly higher especially the S... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? I would appreciate more experiences on Diablo 120 vs 300.. | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? @bluethinker thanks for the response, surely useful. Your experience is exactly what I’m looking for. Since you own both Diablo 120 and Luxman L-590AXII, that can’t get any better. It looks like I might need to proceed with the long delayed plan o... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Thanks @swede58 Has anyone compared the Gryphon Diablo 120 or 300 to the Luxman L-590AXII? I presume these two integrateds would sound quite different? I love the sound of the Luxman but am looking for an overall more punchy and dynamic sound, de... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. @swede58 from your description, I would prefer the Diablo 300 especially if the difference is noticeably significant. Nevertheless, the primary deal breaker for me, is the weight and size of it. Sound quality although important is secondary. The D... | |
| Have you been enjoying your Gryphon Diablo 120 integrated ? Not much luck I guess. Anyway I found this review on the Diablo 300 vs 120. Take it with a grain of salt. It appears that the reviewer likes the 120 more than the 300. https://allforturntables.com/2022/07/26/gryphon-diablo-120-vs-300-what-is-the... | |
| Best Exercise To Improve Capability Of Handling Heavy Amps Thanks for all responses. Yes, I could get someone to help if it’s too troublesome. It’s not worth the risk as it’s easier to pick up an injury as one gets older. If I was still in my twenties or thirties, I would not be worried. In my case it’s ... | |
| Best Exercise To Improve Capability Of Handling Heavy Amps I live in an apartment which comes with a gym, no trainer. It will all be dumbbell workouts with the deadlift since there isn’t any long lifting bars. I usually run on the treadmill, do some sit-ups, pull-ups and some light work with the dumbbells... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Thanks @swede58 that is surely useful. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Has anyone compared the Diablo 300 to 120? I could afford the 300 but the weight is bordering me. Nowadays I prefer amps which I able to carry alone, unaided and the 120 is much more appealing in this respect. Assuming the speakers do not presen... | |
