exists for one simple purpose: To bring the user closer in the never-
ending quest for a more natural and convincing musical illusion. 

Every  Gryphon  design  has  been  built  to  cruise  effortlessly  through 
even the most demanding musical passages, regardless of volume 
level, with a musical presentation defined by supreme articulation and 
immediacy,  subtle  dynamic  shading  and  razor-sharp  focus. 
Refinement and delicacy are combined with power and authority for 
a natural, involving listening experience. 

The Gryphon Master Tape Collection 

In  the  Gryphon  listening  rooms,  we  have  over  the  years  used  a 
unique  library  original  master  tapes  of  recordings  made  during  the 
Golden Age of studio engineering from 1956-1976. 

Unlike conventional commercial releases, the master tapes capture 
the  dynamic  contrasts  and  subtle  inner  harmonic  structure  of  the 
musical event, forcing us to work to a higher standard in our efforts 
to maintain the integrity of the original musical performance. 

Design Principles 

With state of the art technical equipment and some of the finest minds 
in  the  audio  engineering  field  at  our  disposal,  the  Gryphon  brand 
name  continues  to  define  the  highest  audiophile  standards  of 
subjective and technical performance. 

The  dual  mono  configuration  radically  eliminates  any  possibility  of 
crosstalk or other interference between channels and provides infinite 
channel separation  which  contributes to the ability to create space, 
focus, depth and transparency. 

Because the electrical power coming out of your wall fluctuates wildly 
in  terms  of  voltage  and  distortion,  Gryphon  incorporates  heavily 
regulated  multi-stage  power  supplies  that  act  as  effective  mains 
conditioning filters. Displays and control circuits are fed by a separate 
power  supply  to  isolate  any  digital  noise  artifacts  and  effectively 
prevent them from contaminating the signal path. 

While the printed circuit boards in more conventional audio products, 
utilize conductor tracks a mere 35 um thick, Gryphon employs at least 
70 um traces of the highest purity. 

Beginning with our very first product, “The Head Amp” all Gryphon 
products  have  featured  extremely  wide  frequency  bandwidth, 
because  the  ability  to  reproduce  ultra-sonic  frequencies  with  no 
difficulty ensures linear phase across the audible frequency range. 

The house of Gryphon, this is where all 
Gryphon 

products 

are 

developed. 

Manufacturing is in the hands of a select 
number  of  highly  specialized  danish 
companies. 

We  take  the 

”Made  in  Denmark”  very 

seriously. 

 

Gryphon  is  located  in  beautiful  tranquil 
surroundings.
