Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101


   So I've been itching to upgrade my amp. I currently have: PS audio Directstream -> PS BHK preamp -> parasound JC1 -> Focal Sopra 2.
    I narrow down to these 2 candidates. Any one with experience with both int amps can comment on them?Thanks!!!

Ok guys, found a dealer that is ready to lend me his demo Vitus SIA-025 Mk2.

This is supposed to be one of the most musical SS integrated in the world.

Stay tuned!

I'll be interested in your findings. I recently acquired an RI-101 Mk2 and think it's extraordinary on my Fyne F704s, though I do wonder how the SIA-025 might sound driving them. One thing is for certain: the RI-101 Mk2 is not lacking power. It is really a pretty remarkable amp.

Hi all, I got experiance with gryphon and vitus but not exact models mentioned. 

Own Vitus ri100 now for last 6 months and not looking to make any changes soon, convert from separates and was on quest for years to find Vitus, hands down. Previously own Gryphon Atilla which is pre version of diablo 120. I was impresed with gryphon slam and overall performace but noticed that preamp section was the wick link as I bypass it and only use its power aplification section with hegel P30 as preamp for some time. That combination was very good or sruning I should say but when i got my hands on rs100 (power amp) I was immediately taken on with realizm and smooth presentation, like best of two words ss and tubs. Then I managed to get hands on freshly serviced ri100 unit and I must tell I did not think I ever get rid of Hegel P30 but this integrated unit just blowed away any previous configuration. Soundstage, image, details, transaprency everything just got on to next level.
