I made an efford on improving the digital side of my system aiming to have an ultimate resolution and analog wise sound, beside of all the forces and pushes from my audiophile friends for pushing me through analog setups, I decided to stay and improve the digital side. For the journey of more than 20 years many amps, speakers came and gone, tried from 600 watts solid states to 15 watts tubes all having different presentation pros and cons on my system.
I am also tube oriented listener that beleives on magic of tubes and no solid state would bring those beatifull harmonics of tubes. Since now I am happy with my setup and makes me listening to the music for hours and hours. But after having lived with tube amplifiers some solid states like Gryphon and now Goldmund gave the slamm of solid state and 3D soundstage and detail that good tube amp will offer.
Most important thing in this hobby is that if you are happy its done (maybe saying not done but almost), cause every step is another good journey thats why I love this hobby. Cheers and happy listenings to all.

Gryphon Antileon
Pure class a all the way...best in solid state
Nagra Jazz
Nice detail and Nagra type of sound open, detailed, lots of black background with no hiss, no artifacts, no grain..very simple and enjoyable also no preamp could give this detail on low volume levels..
Goldmund Goldmund Telos 600
Goldmund Telos 600 amplifiers. Razor sharp presentation with lot amount of detail together very musical and entertaining sound, holographic 3D soundstage, tube like openess, reliable and trouble free operation. Tour de force on solid state amplification maybe the best in its class..
Due to my system set-up with other pces of gear I need to use a pre-amp so I have mine connected to the xlr output, then to my pre-amp. I'm using xlr IC's and have the phase switch over to correct polarity.
