Gryphon Integrated or Seperates for $20K Pre/Power budget?

The T+A gear uses this technique to emulate the musicality of tubes by using speciallty designed high voltage devices and running at higher rail voltages it was discovered that transistors become more linear when run at these higher voltages similar to some very exotic tube amplifiers the company built.

The T+A amplifiers run warm but not super hot and are incredibily well built in a word they sound very natural with a huge soundstage, great dyanmics, superior resolution and they are  neither bright nor dull sounding.  

The PA 3100HV is an amazing piece if you can find one to audition you will be blown away by it.

Audiotroy, I’d be interested in auditioning T&A, but yes it’s a bit beyond my budget, which as is is already beyond what should be my budget :-)

You mentioned the Gryphon Diablo 300 sounds a bit “dark”.  Can you expand on what you mean by this?  Does it continually get warmer in tonal response as you move up in frequency?  How does it compare with Mac mc462 and others?

thanks!

I'm not sure where you are in western Canada but I'm In Victoria BC and there are quite a few really good dealers in Vancouver and Victoria then there is many more just south of the boarder in Seattle and surrounding areas. Also we have a small group of  audiophiles that meet regularly who may know more places then I do. contact me if you want to chat.

My brothers owns the New Diablo and on his quest over 4 months set out  bringing his integrated to at least 8 different systems with amps preamps up to $26k not counting digital, and not one bettered it’s musicality and synergy , one 
less power cord, one less pair of interconnects ,
and the digital board which my brother has ,another $3500 is Excellent ,which eliminates anotherpower cord and digital cable a Ton less wiring ,which adds to the timing and musicianship of thisintegrated . It is Fantastic Period !!

Luxman 900U monos. Or stereo amp with matching pre. Excellent.
