No click through speakers. Individual signal paths for each step on volume. Very similar to Ayre.

I've had my Diablo 300 for about 10 months (and love it). If I adjust the volume by touching the panel, I hear a low click that appears to emanate from the amp's panel. Nothing through my speakers. If I adjust the volume through the remote, which is my practice 100% of the time (except for responding to your post), no audible click from the panel or speakers. A loud click through the speakers would be a big turn off for me too. I wonder what Gryphon would say to this if queried via their website. Sounds to me like the store's demo unit might need service. |

I thought so too didn’t make sense but store said it was normal which I still can’t believe
But then we also tried the Diablo 120 and that did it too. Really like the 300 but could not buy it. |

With the arrival of cooler weather here, I am back into audio mode. This integrated amp continues to provide me with tremendous listening pleasure. It simply does everything so well.

Diablo 300 is a killer integrated amplifier.

Need to get down to Sarasota to visit Mike's to give it proper audition. Right now this segment of the market is hot. So many great integrated to chose from. It is all so system dependent adn each has it's strengths and weaknesses. I nearly pulled the trigger on a Constellation Heucules series 2, but realized that the cabinets don't fit my TV stand (can't have a dedicated room, lol). My new Memory Player server and Laufter Technique DAC takes up a lot of real estate (well worth it though), so I need to get mono blocks to put beside the speakers and hide them with silk plants or just find an integrated that fits the stand. The 300 may just make it in, lol. Does it run hot?

Mine is running at 165. It's not that bad. I wouldn't put it in confined space though.

How is the midrange and female voices in the Diablo 300? I did have mcintosh c2600 and mc501 but sold that and did buy hegels new h590, but now it sounds totaly flat
I really miss the sweet midrange. Will i get that with Diablo 300 or do i need tubes? |
