Mark Levinson 326S "What I did become increasingly aware of during my time with the Levinson No.326S was the fact that "neutrality" is not merely an absence of aberration but a positive virtue. I could hear more deeply into the mix, but without detail being spotlit or unnaturally thrown forward. Subtle details were presented with greatercontrast against a quieter ground in all of these recordings: the reverberation tails that follow Joe Morello's kick drum highlights in his drum soloin "Take 5" from Dave Brubeck's Time Out (SACD, Sony 7464-65122-6)" - John Arkinson - Stereophile Jan 2006

After 6 months of testing John compared it to a host of other high end preamps and gave it a glowing recommendation saying that it offered all he wanted from a preamp.

Gryphon Diablo The ultimate reference integrated amplifier, pure music at its best.

‘The Diablo sounded just beautiful in my system. It was also perfect in operation, with some unique features -- such as that wonderful touch-panel faceplate. All of this makes for an easy and hearty recommendation. It may or may not be built by wizards in some far-off land, but the Gryphon Diablo is a real product that any audiophile who seeks magic from his audio system should fully explore.’
