The latest Gryphon Diablo is the most big power integrated I have ever heard .my brother owns it.i owned a Audiostore until 08 
in the UK and heard the best from both sides of the pond .my brothers unit is the latest model Fantastic integrated done right with no limitation can be better  ,far shorter signal paths internally 
no extra interconnects,as well as power cords. And they even make a exception internal dac which was several grand but truly 
packed with musicality and resolution , the pass 350.5is very good 
with their upper end preamp ,but as as complete or musically as effortless then the Gryphon from my observations, that being said 
cables, and speakers too can make or break a system unless I heard all 3 of them with the same equipment I could never make that call for sure.all the Flagship Danish integrated roughly100wpc 
class , which I heard once but great those 2 best integrated s I have heard. Each one has its own strengths especially vacuum tube vs solid state.
