@ryder - I completely understand. Which speakers are you planning on using with the new amp (purchased used, as you mentioned)?
ive been intrigued by the AudioNet equipment. The AudioNet Watt has intrigued me. Any particular reason you’d pass on it? I have not heard it, but would like to. |
@bluethinker I’ll be using the Marten Duke 2 with the new(likely used) amp. I also own the Graham LS5/9 but have the Naim amps on these. I occasionally will rotate the amps on the speakers to see how they would perform together. A dealer offered the Audionet Watt for the trade-in of my Naim amps but the deal was not good. |
As an update, I’ve finally succumbed to the temptation. I was initially looking at the Diablo 120 but managed to secure a deal on a used but in immaculate condition Gryphon Diablo 300 with DAC module through a dealer after the owner upgraded to the Essence. It won’t be too soon until I receive the unit but I’m excited as this one will surely qualify as endgame. After speaking to the dealer, the new Diablo 333 is said to be slightly better than the 300, not a significant improvement while the Essence is significantly better than both. Nevertheless, the 300 is at the limit where I could spend on an amp and I’m convinced I won’t be looking anymore after this.
