| cost no object integrated amps The Diablo 300 is already a great integrated but I’m looking forward to hear the new Diablo 333. | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated I’d also say it depends on the level of integrated you are looking at. I agree, there are many truly high-end integrated amps to choose from. I went from separates to a Diablo 300. The new Diablo 333 will probably be even better. | |
| Nordost Frey2 vs Tyr2 @akg_ca I have had the Frey2 Sc on loan for a week now but I can not hear any brightness, actually they sound a bit softer than my current AQ Argent. Very tight and articulate bass which also is a bit more powerful than the AQ’s. I will also try a... | |
| Nordost Frey2 vs Tyr2 @akg_ca Thanks. I fully understand that the Valhalla is a fantastic cable but it’s way to expensive. Twice the price of my Magnepan speakers!!! | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! -- i versions imo add a noticeable degree of warmth and weight to the sound that my ears very much appreciate @jjss49 How big would you say the difference in bass is between the 3.7 and 3.7i? | |
| Amp Around 60 lbs Which Sounds Like A Gryphon 300 @arafiq Thanks, I have heard the Int 250 at a dealer and I own a Diablo 300 (driving Magnepan 3.7’s) but I was curious how the Pass compares to the Gryphon. Never heard an Aavik. | |
| Amp Around 60 lbs Which Sounds Like A Gryphon 300 @arafiq How did the 120 compare against the Int 250? | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection @dwest1023 I’ve heard a lot of good things about the danish Diablo 300/Dynaudio combo. | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection @dwest1023 My impressions mirror yours. I preferred the Pass, found the E800 a bit too polite. Ended up with a Diablo 300. | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection @dwest1023 How did the Accuphase 380 compare to the Int 250? I have heard the E800 against the Int 250. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 or Pass Labs Int-250 to Sonus faber Amati Tradition @habermas If memory serves both were launched in 2015. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 or Pass Labs Int-250 to Sonus faber Amati Tradition Since the Amati drops below 4 ohms in the bass I would go for the Diablo 300 which has much more current capability into low impedances than the Int 250. | |
| Maggie owners -- Mye or Magna Riser stands @krelldreams I asked Wendell If the ”i” goes deeper than the original 3.7’s, he said; ”no, not really, it’s a tweak”. I guess he was referring to the damping pad behind the midrange which makes them slightly more laid back and warmer sounding. | |
| Maggie owners -- Mye or Magna Riser stands however even Wendell Diller of Magnepan has said that the difference between the 3.7 and the 3.7i is very subtle. So, I can keep what I have, upgrade to 3.7i, or sell these and buy a brand new pair of 1.7i @krelldreams Based on what I have hear... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 It does not respond much to source or cable changes. ?! My D300 responded very well to a better power cord. I preferred the Diablo 300 over the Vitus RI101mkII, better looking too. |
