sonic goals.
The Man
Gryphon Audio Designs is the
brainchild of Flemming E.
Rasmussen and the fulfillment
of a lifelong dream to allow the
purest essence of the live music
experience to be recreated in
the home environment.
Rasmussen holds a degree in
painting and graphic arts from
the Aarhus Art Academy,
Denmark. During his studies,
Rasmussen developed close
relationships with the local
music community and
designed many LP covers and
concert posters. After gradua-
tion, he taught photography
and painting and designed tex-
tiles, before founding 2R
Marketing, which quickly
became Denmark’s leading
High End audio import compa-
ny.
Gryphon Audio Designs was
founded in 1985 as an offshoot
of 2R Marketing, The first prod-
uct, the now legendary
Gryphon Head Amp, grew from
a one-off spare time project
developed only for the design-
ers’ own home systems.
Although the Gryphon project
was initially strictly a hobby, not
an actively pursued commer-
cial venture, demand generat-
ed by reviews and word-of-
mouth led to the formal estab-
lishment of Gryphon Audio
Designs as a separate corpo-
rate entity.
Following the immediate suc-
cess of the Gryphon brand, all
import business was phased
out in 1993, so that Rasmussen
could dedicate his efforts
entirely to Gryphon.
