Time for an update, I’ll keep it brief. Very disappointingly the Vitus (I so wanted them to play beautiful music) did nothing for me. I negotiated a fair deal on the broken NAT magma se mono blocks, found a great valve amp engineer not too far away and without assistance from NAT 🙁 they are up...

Hiya RJ Just back from 5 hours of Argentine tango dancing with aching feet….. Switched back my Line Magnetic 845 Premium using it as a power amp with the Levinson and it sounds, well, just right. Even though it doesn’t hit as hard as the Vitus, it’s so much more moving. I want to love the Vitus...

Hi there RJ. Yes, listening as I write. Mixed feelings right now. They didn’t like my Nat Magnetostat pre much, better with my Mark Levinson 523 pre. Both class A and AB sound good, different, but good. I don’t like the “rock” mode at all, it spreads the sound stage to wide in a strange, to...

Tried 12 yr old Nat Magma SE mono. At first too polite but after few day of extended listening they improved dramatically but still a little soft in the bass, until one stated with a nasty intermittent hum that eventually when to a horrible squealing noise, so that’s being returned. But very...

Again, fabulous information. Thank you RJ Thank you RJ, though at 67 I don’t knows I’ve got 15 years to choose 😂. Many amps and speakers have graced my music room and I know the sound I’m looking for, but getting it with new and challenging speakers, as you say, takes time and effort, but...

Thanks again RJ, much appreciated. May I ask have you listened to the SS101 or is it assumption that the SS103 has moved the game that much further on? If you have, then I’ll more likely pursue the used Gryphon or hold out for a used 103’s as new is out of the question until the big lottery win...

Thank you again RJ

Having discounted Luxman and Pass (those I can afford and afford to run), based on distortion below 2 Ohms, I’ve shortlisted used but very recent Gryphon Antileon Evo and refurbished Vitus ss101. Is the £10k price gap worth it?

Hiya RJ Thank you for your well considered response 🙏. From my research, I’ve read all I can find on the net and watched everything that I can find on YouTube etc about the Antileon and comparisons with the Mephisto et al and it supports your Mephisto observations. The Antileon seems to have...

Does anybody use or have they heard the Gryphon Antileon Evo amplifier with CLX speakers please. Thanks

Using iso acoustic Titan feet 😁

Great advice, I thought I’d got the best position as I’m well practiced at position speakers, but I applied the math approach as offered in the owners manual, which moved them about 100 mm further forward and 200 mm total closer together and I did get a better result. Thank you.

Hi Brad Got them nicely positioned and the subs dialled in and it’s now sounding really lovely with both “the very impressive” 200 watt AGD Gran Vivace and “the very inviting” but a little underpowered, 25 watt Line Magnetic 845 premium, which I was unable to use on previous 86db speakers, it’s...

Hi RJ Well they are up and running and actually I think the white works, whether I stick with it or wrap them eventually is another matter. Cheers Chris

Hi RJ Well they are in the house.

Thank you Hi RJ. Thanks for your message and the informative/helpful comments. The CLX’s are white gloss, though, had I the choice, they would be black to better match the decore. Hopefully, they will be up and running by midday tomorrow, following which I’ll post some pics. Cheers

Hi Robert New to me but unopened still in box via authorised dealer in the UK selling on behalf of original buyer who never got to use them. I think the they went out of production 2022?
