Soulution 331 vs Gryphon Diablo 333

Haven’t heard either one but something you should be cognizant of is the disparity in cost.  The Soulution is listed as $45K whereas the Diablo is around $23K.  In addition, it looks like there has been a slight reduction in power with the former, from 120W to 100W.  There was a huge increase in cost with the Soulution, (eg 331 from 330) which may or not be justified depending upon your ears.

I checked on the MSRP of the Soulution, and it's $33K without the DAC and phono. Dealers are not explaining this on their websites. I have heard the Diablo 300 and was impressed; the Soulution will be more difficult to demo, though!

Gryphon is a monster amp. What speakers are you planning to use ? Also, Gryphon's phono and dac are usually excellent, if you need them.
