The mechanical design and assembly methods of the enclosure are carefully calculated to
ensure minimal chassis resonance, either through the use of high mass mechanical
grounding or decoupling. Vibration-sensitive components, capacitors in particular, are thus
guaranteed a non-resonant environment which, in turn, provides a solid foundation for optimal
electrical performance.
Gryphon’s artistically wrought, massive chassis offers a vibration-proof environment for
the sensitive electronics inside and provides crucial shielding from a polluted world of low- and
high-frequency radio waves, power-line radiation and other electrical interference. Our
obsessive attention to such issues enables the relaxing, open and transparent Gryphon sound.
Unique, non-intrusive protection circuitry offers reliable, fuss-free protection without
compromising signal purity and signal path simplicity.
In the interest of ultimate fidelity and signal purity, tone controls and other superfluous
circuitry have been banished from the signal path. The ground path has been carefully laid
out in order to achieve superior sonic performance with no loss of stability. Component layout is
designed to ensure the shortest conceivable signal path.
Exhaustive investigation precedes the selection of every component part and many
bespoke, proprietary components are custom-built exclusively for Gryphon. And because
what is left out is just as important as what goes in, an absolute minimum of internal wiring is
included.
By lavishing attention on each aspect of the circuit and fully understanding the purpose
and behaviour of every single part of the whole, our designers can optimize performance in
each section before moving on to the next step. This ensures simplicity, a short signal path and
a unity of purpose towards a single, well-defined goal: musical purity.
