High Current Integrated Options for Manger Speakers

Hey Folks:

Looking for suggestions for high current integrateds (tube, hybrid, or solid state) under $10k. Folks who have direct experience driving Manger loudspeakers with such are particularly encouraged to share your thoughts! Internal phono and DAC not required.

Second Gryphon Diablo 300. Just lots and lots of current and power. Plus amazing refinement

@dodgealum 

Why are you asking for a “high current” integrated? At ~89dB, Manger speakers seem relatively easy to drive.

The Gryphon Diablo 300 is a VERY HIGH current integrated. 238A!

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. @kennyc  Several reviews of the Mangers indicate they are lower sensitivity than reported and also I have it on good authority that the brand flourishes when fronted by high current designs. Please keep the ideas flowing as none of the models mentioned are ringing my bell aesthetically.

@dodgealum You're pivoting from Soundlabs to Mangers? Did you finally get to listen to the Soundlabs? Like I mentioned when we spoke, if you can drive a bit further to Philly, I know 2 who would host you. Cheers,

Spencer
