Gryphon Mikado

Hello guys!
I auditioned the Gryphon Mikado some days ago and it seemed like a really wondrefull digital source.Really musical, in fact the most musical player ive heard, really getting you into the soul of the music. I would really like to know your opinion about this player and how it compares with the other players in its price range (11.000$) like esoteric etc. Do you think the synergy with my amp (grypho Diablo) should be one thing to consider?And what if i buy it now and gryphon introduces a new player?
Help please!
Best Regards,
Mike

Mike,
You have already raised two compelling points; that is the "natural" synergy of two components created by the same design team and the fact that this and ANY manufacturer may be around the corner with something new!
A quick e-mail should get you an answer to that,as for this price point,you will have several strong choices but the fact that you feel this first impression and that it's yet another Gryphon piece would lend weight to this decision.
Good luck!

Thanx Azjake.Mikado is a very strong competitor for my upgrade plans but I would really be interested to hear the opinion of other people who have auditioned Mikado or get an alternative solution for a very musical player in the
80000$ - 11000$ range.
Thanx in Advance!!!!!!

Hi,
Would like to hear the Gryphon, rumor is that
it is more than competitive with the usual
Levinson, Classe, etc.

Anybody know?

thanks!

Mixalis at the show the EmmLabs was better than Mikado, but Mikado was very nice to look at especially when the "jar" closed in flashing blue airport lights!
Gryphon Mikado latest models are upgraded, any newer Mikado has the latest upgrades. But if you can find a good deal with Emm Labs stick to it IMHO.
