Gryphon Diablo & Dartzeel CTH-8550

Hi Lloyd,
I heard the Vitus SIA-025 for about 2 hours, but it's really difficult to tell as it was a totally unfamiliar setting. It would have been fun if I could audition the Gryphon Diablo and Vitus RI-100 within the same room. Too bad, no such luck!
Cheers

Did you like what you heard?

Hi Lloyd,

I really couldn't tell if the Vitus set up was good. It was neither bad nor good to me in terms of tonality. But it is definitely not for me, because I like to play loud and 25W Class A just doesn't cut it.

All in all, from what I have heard so far, the Dartzeel is still the one to beat, for me.
Cheers

Hamburger,

good to know! Volume does count when evaluating! I rarely listen at loud levels anymore...but last nite, i did bring out the Deep House...and it always helps to have the extra power to keep turning up the volume!

DTZL is world-class...enjoy!

I guess then the question is whether the Dartzeel is worth the asking price? $20k is not exactly chump change, even if it has an pleasure control.
