Gryphon Zena Скачать руководство пользователя страница 7

Exhaustive investigation underlies the selection of every component 
part  and  many  original,  proprietary  components  are  custom-built 
exclusively for Gryphon. 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 behavior 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  with  a  single,  well-defined 
objective: musical purity. 

In the interest of ultimate fidelity, tone controls, balance-controls and 
other unnecessary components have been banished from the signal 
path. 

Exterior Design 

From  the  very  beginning,  every  Gryphon  product  has  offered 
stunning  audio  performance,  sumptuous  styling  and  superb  user-
friendliness, catering to the needs of the discerning audiophile who 
demands  musicality,  convenience  and  aesthetics,  all  without 
compromise. 

In every Gryphon product, form follows function in a unique synthesis 
of  aesthetics  and  practicality.  Gryphon  stands  for  sophisticated 
technology  with  a  high  standard  of  industrial  finish  that  also 
incorporates the best of handcraftsmanship. 

The peerless finish, build quality, ergonomics and pride of ownership 
that contribute to the totality of the Gryphon concept can only be fully 
understood and appreciated up close and in person. 

Rasmussen’s  background  in  fine  arts  and  industrial  design  gives 
every  Gryphon  product  a  distinctive,  luxuriant  finish  which  arises 
organically out of the audio circuit design and the user interface for a 
truly unique integration of form and function.
