Good upgrade from Levinson 33H's

Hi Bullot,

Please email me if you want some ideas about where to find Gryphons. there are a few places which are quite good.

There are a number of things i was hoping to bring up and get your advice on what these components have done to your system...i have often wondered:

1. Stealth Dream speaker cables (i have Transp Ref)
2. Dmitri power conditioner (i have Transp Ref)
3. Bybees (i have Nordost QX4...different but same 'theme')

Thanks for any guidance!

Finally, have you ever looked at whatsbestforum.com? Gary Koh is a very, very frequent user of the forum, and is a founding member or a moderator or something i thought.

i have spoken with him quite a bit there...and he also recently shared his thoughts on the Forum about Gryphon Colosseum saying its one of the best SS he has ever worked with.

AGain, email if more interested in finding Gryphon. Great system...i think very highly of Gary Koh and have heard great things about his higher level speakers from old pros in the business who have "heard everything" over the last 25-30 years.

Thanks Lloydelee21..........some questions you had!!
1. The Stealth Dream I really like. I had Shunyata Orion prior to the Stealth. I have not really tried very many speaker cables compared to other components and wire! I essentially hooked it up and forgot about it! To me it's one of those things that I am going to have to spend huge money on to improve, so I just accepted that it was a great cable and forgot about chasing any other models.
2. The only other power conditioner I have had is the Shunyata VRay. I had the same experience with the Dmitri as the Stealth Dream.......great product, plug it in and forget about it! Sure there may be something better, I don't know if there is.......but I can't see anything working much better for me so that was the end of my search. Compared to the VRay it just seems smoother, more natural and really invisible, seems like it's not there!
3. The Bybees I have on my speakers and ic's are really nice. Difficult to explain what they do! If you have or have heard the Tripoint Troy, I think they do the same thing, only not to nearly as great an affect. Things are more natural more at ease more real. I like the Bybee and can't see ever selling them, but unless you get a deal on them the cost is prohibitive! Better putting that money towards the Troy, unless you get a deal.

Thanks! Great advice and very detailed. I will also share this with a friend who is considering Dmitri. Enjoy your great system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I noticed that John Atkinson said the Classe' CT-M 600's were the best amps he had used at home . I found that interesting since he used the 33H's for about ten years as his main evaluation amp's .
There a bargain at $13,000 .

Hey there Tmsorosk........yes that is interesting! I loved my 33H's. My first real "high end" amp was a classe DR9. I ended up with a pair of them and ran them mono! Loved them, and loved the classic look Classe had back then! I also had a Classe DR5L preamp, so I know the brand well and enjoyed my time with them very much! I have not heard the "newer" models for years, might be time to give them a chance again as I continue to hear lots good about them.
