Have listened to the all Gryphon gear at Munich highend this year.
me and my audiobuddy were maybe impressed by SPL's and iron fist like grip, but the system lacked any musicality.
the moment strings and instruments emerged, we were gone.
but shows can be a great turnoff. even the best gear can either sound great or real bad at different shows.
roomacoustics is still such an overlooked item all the more if we talk about 200K + gear...
would like to try out a Gryphon poweramp anytime on my Lohengrin though. i do know the Gryphon classA poweramps can bring out superb level of performance if partnered rightly.
it's all in the match..
