Anyone heard the Gryphon Trident?


Hi, I am researching on these speakers, which are self-powered below 250hz. Can't seem to find a review.
Would appreciate feedbacks from folks who have heard or owned them.
Thanks.

Alectiong - The amplifier inside the Trident is not a Class D amplifier but a dedicated Gryphon Class A/B amplifier. 1 meter of heatsink of the backside is hinting at this...
Besides that, Tuboo is right,. merely "driving" a speaker is not the questions. There is no substitute for listening with your own ears, but given the high sensitivity and uncomplex load of the Trident, very low power is required and from a technical point, a tube amplifier could do the job, but subjectively it could be a poor choice.
The bass amp is Class A/B in the Trident. I asSume you have a large room, hence the question regarding the Trident. It is best with an all Gryphon rack. However if you have other electronics, and want a semiactive speaker, then I think a cheaper option would be the Adam Audio Tensor series, exceptional value and nearly there. I deeply respect Rockport, but the question is about active bass section so I will stick to the subject.
Hi all,
Thanks for your thoughts.
I happen to have a 18 w SET (Lamm ML2.1). I am looking for full range high efficiency speakers (>94db) that can be well controlled by the lamm. Horns are out for me, so are wide baffle designs. Speakers that fit my criteria are the higher models of Wilson and Verity, and those with self powered bass like the Trident. For the latter groups of speakers, i was wondering if it is a good idea to use a SET amp on the mid/hi, and SS amp on the bass.
I think the optimum solution for the Trident is a Gryphon amp for highs as well! Otherwise you may have faster or slower lower frequencies than the rest of the spectrum.

Just my 2 cents.
