@gryphongryph - I switch back and forth every few months between the Gryphon 120 with Dynaudio Heritage Special speakers to the QLN Prestige 3 driven by a Conrad Johnson Classic 120 paired with an LTA Microzotl preamp. 
 

Dac is the Merason dac1 mkii and the streamer/server is Innuos Zenith mkiii. 
 

I can’t decide which pairing I like better. Both are pretty much end-game for me unless I win the lottery. 

@gryphongryph - Based on your handle, is it fair to assume you also have a Gryphon amp? If so, may I ask what your system consists of? 

No, sorry to disappoint you, running Supratek Cabernet pre into a Belles Class A power amp. Used to have QLN Signature speakers a long time ago, I was in a lengthy email conversation with the designer when he started the QLN brand again.

Had a good offer on the new Signature model, but chose to go the BBC line of speakers with an other designer I admire a lot, mr Derek Hughes and his Graham Audio LS 5/9.

Maybe one day I will have an other QLN, and a nicer person than mr Mats Andersen you will not find, a true gentleman.

ps. My old QLN I can still listen too at my brother’s house and they still sound very nice.
