| Music Server vs PC confused Hi guys, would like to know which would be the best solution for Qobuz streaming between a dedicated fanless NUC with linear PSU and Roon core onboard or a Lumin U1 or even a Melco ?I will be using a $32k DAC. | |
| Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think? Hi guys i'll be getting either new 03s or if possible to find a good deal on a demo pair of 05s.Will drive them with Gryphon Mephisto stereo.I think this pairing hasn't been done yet.Anyone own 05s on Audiogon ?Cheers. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Hi guys, another big Gryphon fan here, i have heard the Diablo 300, Essence stereo, Antileon Evo and Colosseum stereo so far.I'm going to be demoing the Mephisto stereo at my dealers for the first time by the end of this month.So far my favorire o... | |
| Thiel Owners @jafant yes you should definitely audition the Diablo 300 before making any decision.The Gryphon will have much more grip on your 2.4SE than the Ayre integrated, just my 2 cents.I'm going to demo the Gryphon Mephisto stereo by the end of this mon... | |
| Is Roon Nucleus the best choice for Roon Core and as server? @jaytor Thanks for your input, my NUC is also in a fanless Akasa case very easy to mount indeed.I will do the same with an I7 NUC and add a linear PSU to the NUC.Install Roon Rock and get Roon membership.This NUC will be connected to my router vi... | |
| Is Roon Nucleus the best choice for Roon Core and as server? Hi guys, i’m also looking at different alternatives for Qobuz streaming only and perhaps little local storage.Would a Roon Rock server be up to the task in a 180K reference level system or should i look at more expensive streamers like Innuos or A... | |
| High Powered Holographic Amplifiers Audionet Heisenberg or Gryphon Mephisto.Robert Koda K-160 are much more expensive than Heisenberg and Mephisto. | |
| Thiel Owners Jafant since you want to purchase the Ayre integrated, did you also think about the Gryphon Diablo 300 ?That's one very good alternative in the same price range and you could find a used one.Cheers. | |
| Gryphon Essence Pre and Stereo Power Amp Review The Antileon Evo is another beast compared to the Essence, the power difference is quite obvious.Antileon is more organic, has more depth and much bigger sound stage.Bass foundation is very impressive with Antileon, you are really at a live concer... | |
| Dac upgrade At your level of gear EmmLabs DA2 V2 should also be considered.I'm aware it's very expensive though. | |
| Gryphon Essence Pre and Stereo Power Amp Review Nice write up eagle3333, i am myself a big Gryphon fan.Heard the Essence combo that you own at my dealers just 2 weeks ago, it was driving a pair of TAD Evolution One TX.I confirm this combo betters the Diablo 300 which is already outstanding.I'm ... | |
| Dac upgrade Aqua Formula xHD is another good option indeed. | |
| Amp recommendation to drive Thiel 3.6 speakers @pyma6 the look of the Antileon is another story, it is problably not very WAF friendly but in terms of sound it is phenomenal paired with big hungry Thiel speakers.It might also be difficult to find one used as most Gryphon owners keep their amps... | |
| Dac upgrade I've heard most DACs up to 100k and and the ones that stand out for me are the Totaldac by a wide margin.You have a 3 weeks free trial in case you don't like it.Prices start at 2,5k up to 32k. | |
| Amp recommendation to drive Thiel 3.6 speakers A used Gryphon Antileon Signature would be great. |
