Audionutz Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) SOLD Item: Gryphon DiabloLocation: Gosford NSW Price: $SOLD negItem Condition: ExcellentReason for selling: Need funds.Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal buyer pays fee, COD OnlyExtra Info: In my opinion, one of the top three amplifiers I've ever heard. Versatile, powerful and with the amazing Gryphon build quality. Original remote included, along with a copy of the manual. Serviced and checked by Kimmil Electronics, the authorised Gryphon Service Centre in Sydney. Once you've head Gryphon, it's hard to forget. I can ship this anywhere, as long as the buyer pays for packing and insurance. Alternatively, I can deliver to Sydney, or within a couple of hours of the Central Coast. I will entertain trade in offers of other high end audio, but will need to be cash on top of any trades.

Be Quiet...Listen Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I've had the pleasure of hearing audionutz' Diablo. This is a very, very nice amplifier. Solid state at it finest. GLWTS, but I doubt you'll need it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChupaChups Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) I've heard the Diablo 300, it is the best integrated sounding ampI've heard to date. Build quality is second to none. Considering AudioConnection has a trade in Diablo, they are asking for 11k, this seems a very good deal. Someone please start negotiating with the seller!

Also how old is it please as the rear looks different to the one in this review below (and possibly an earlier model than the one at AudioConnection?) http://www.avhub.com.au/product-reviews/sound-image/gryphon-diablo-300-integrated-amplifier-review-415110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChupaChups Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The new Diablo 300 asking price is 25k.. I reckon the trade in one at Audio Connection must be the original Diablo which is rated @250wpc. Which I think is the same model as the seller. Am sure the seller can confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audionutz Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 Yes, this is the same model in at Audioconnection. My apologies for the dust on the amp in the pics. As was kindly pointed out by an obliging and alert poster that messaged me, who'd want to buy it in that state ! I obviously don't care about my gear, as the 100's who bough stuff from me will attest, I'm sure. I frequently punt it around the room, let the kids climb on it and on special days, the dogs get to sleep on top of it (nice and toasty on those cold winters evenings) <sic> Will clean and photograph in better light and state when time permits.

Cheers 'Nutz Who would want to buy anything in that state...(NSW)...Now if it was Qld... Definitely not for me...must have had a cat sleeping on it... Cat hair is finer adding to the top end reproduction... Seriously...I would charge extra for the dust... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertzgeek Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) Fantastic amplifier for the money, pretty sure you can throw in some greasy fingerprints at very minimal extra charge. The mint New ones for 25k should be good dust free examples. Who knew dust affects price the way it does GLWTS Edited July 8, 2017 by Hertzgeek 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-T113 using Tapatalk Especially in this place. House design seems to be made in such a way as to pull dust in through vents into the rooms. Even with drop sheets and regular cleaning, a camera flash always finds some! That said, I could have done a better job, agreed. Doesnt seem to have affected the enquiry rate though ....

44maloo Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Simply one of the best brands you can buy, from one of the best designer's in the world. What an absolute bargain this is and from one of the best guys on the forum. GLWTS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-T113 using Tapatalk As a new owner of a devialet give me black any day of the week. And don't even get me started on the remote control...identical to the amplifier. Need gloves just to adjust the volume or handle it. Mind you when they are spotless (rarity) they do look very sublime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth vader Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Since I'm often made to sleep where the dog sleeps, seems it could be good for me. Nice and warm on those cold winter nights...lol Nice amp, GLWTS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you can be wrong and happy. Or, single...right and happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
