Nice one Paul mate.
I've heard good things about this particular power module, and those who've previously owned the units from PS Audio. The P20 is quite good, demoed in a few installations during my last travels in Aug. Didn't get a chance to audition the Gryphon though, will do so next Feb.
Having said that, at our previous apartment/ Unit, the AC power was only on one phase coming into the building and shared by 4 other Units. Hence, not ideal for highend audio at all, especially a system comprising of CLX's! I could hear every detail of unwanted noise including switching whenever the bloody kettle was used or fridge kicked in to cool. Tried various power conditioning gadgets, from Tauras to Shunyata, PS Audio... nothing worked. Only when my trusted sparky (electrician) came over, he highly advised a dedicated AC line for the system, shared by nothing else, wired directly to the mains board on a separate CB of 10A nothing more. After all, this is domestic Hifi, not rock concert config.
And so, after 15yrs we finally built our own home and I installed dedicated AC lines just for the Audio system, outstanding!!!
Nothing to fault and such power units aren't required any more. Tried quite a combination just to see if there were any differences but to no avail. In fact (nane of brand withheld) hindered the natural dynamics and superb transients the CLX's are capable of reproducing at high performance levels.
So now, I don't use anything, other than of course the Nordost power accessories. Now that's a whole other topic and takes the CLX's towards a different dimension! A Supreme reference level.
As long as the Gryphon power unit contributed to a significant improvement, that's a definite step up. Enjoy those finest tunes!
Woof! RJ
