@mramaswamy11 the gryphon is very nice, not a fan of Vitus. the weakest part of the 232 is the amplifier section, not that its bad but it does not compare to the 956/216/218/etc. the preamp section is very good, at my shop we compared the 232 and than used the above using the precuts on 232 and it was a major difference/upgrade. I sell the 232 with an amp several times
Burmester 232 vs mono blocks in the same price range ange
Bought a Burmester 232 5 months back. Broken in by now. Absolutely love the signature sound. Just wondering if mono blocks in the same price range ($25K - $30K) would sound much better or the same. The Burmester was a blind purchase since I had it in my car and loved the sound. What is special about a $30K integrated amplifier in terms of audio circuitry etc?

@ckr1969 Will look into that for future upgrades. Out of curiosity, is the Gryphon 333 in the same league as the 232? |
We have Kanta 3s in our home theatre and while they are nice speakers they are definitely the weak link in your excellent system. I second upgradIng them. I own Rockport speakers and highly recommend them. They are universally regarded as one of the best speakers made. Start with the Avior ii and go up from there |
@ronboco Wow. They're almost $40K. So speakers should ideally be as or more expensive than the amplifier? |
