Auditioned both and went for the Gryphon, mainly because it's sound "architecture" is bass-dominant, so given your music tastes I'd go for the Gryphon. Another thing is price, the US Accuphase distributor is greedy so you'll be paying more than you should. Another option you might not hear about much on AGON is T+A from Germany, they make great integrateds, can't remember the top model, but you might find it hard to demo unless you live in a big city.
Accuphase E5000 vs Gryphon Diablo 300
Hi, looking at an endgame integrated amp. The Accuphase E5000 and Gryphon Diable 300 have both piqued my interests and would like to demo. both soon.
I’m a rock, pop, punk, blues kind of guy & will end up with a Spendor D9.2 as the speaker.
Is it worth look in at these two or should I expand my demo. list ?
