| Almost embarrassed to ask, but... In almost all cases, coaxial is better than optical. Just get a pro audio 75ohm mogami cable (or any pro audio brand) and you are good. check sweetwater.com preamp is a touchy subject. At the top level systems, in most cases top preamp will bes... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 David, Wow, so the T+A edged out the pass combo? Was it by a big margin? What aspects to you that the int amp does better than pass labs?CheersBryan | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 David, No, I think alot of people who are looking at these 2 amps are also looking at the T+A as well. I've heard alot of good thing about that int amp. Let us know what you think, especially comparing to Vitus.CheersBryan | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 @Joannism, I sent u msg detailing what my upgrade was. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 @caphill Thank you for letting us know your experience with the Naim. But at 35k, the NAP 500DR is abit pricy, especially knowing that there is a statement amp up there.@dpac996 For me at this price point, the gear needs to be able to do all the t... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 @yyzsantabarbara Thanks for your suggestion. But the AHB2 might be abit thin sounding combine with sopra. From the stereophile review:" That's where I discovered that my new hero amp wasn't quite perfect. Oh, its power and resolution were still ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 @caphill Thanks for the suggestions. I actually was looking at naim, as I know sopra was voiced with them. But their 500 amp (never mind their statement stuff) is pretty pricy, plus they really have no present in US, and nobody have their gears.Th... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 They always sound better if they cost more. I think most audiophiles do not believe this. I wouldn’t have gotten the JC1 if that were the case. If there are other int_amp/amp you believe can best these brands, please share.The JC1 has 132000 micr... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 Geroge, that was actually pretty useful information with your mate's Wilson. Now, the fact that we are talking about the Alexia, its an extremely difficult load for any amp. The focal sopra 2 on the other hand is very easy load. With easier load s... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 Frankly I have no complaints about the JC1 or the bhk preamp(it replaced a audio research ls27). But I'm just always curious about the uber top level neutral SS amp and what they have to offer; burmester, dagnostino, constellation, vitus, gryphon,... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 I understand. But even with dealerships, having completely different system setup/wires/frontend, it's not possible to discern the turn nature of an equipment with just an afternoon.If someone have had experience with both (or the older RI-100), t... | |
| PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Preamplifier. DESTROYS SPEAKERS!! I was going to purchase the preamp, and this thread changed my mind.Quality and customer service matter.If the output stage has even 0.01% potential of blowing customer's unimaginably expensive speakers, extra care during design stage should be ta... | |
| Mystere CA 21 Preamp I think it uses stepped resistor-based attenuators, not the regular pot. All highend stepped atten. do not have remote, and they're supposedly way better than any pot (be it Alps). | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Just got the email, they're introducing the normal version of Zu soul for 1400.I still think the omen at 1k is a better deal. Anyone with knowledge between these two care to comment? | |
| Wyred DACS BNC input, that's a very helpful info. I always read that BNC is better than RCA. But aren't they both 75ohm, with the same type of signal? How are they differ? The BNC to RCA is just a tip changer, even the most highend ones. |
