The Gryphon Essence Stereo is equipped with a capacitor bank with a total capacity of 440,000 UF and weighs 45 kg. There is no global negative feedback, a servo drive is used for direct current communication. The design, of course, is balanced, a full-fledged "double mono". A specially manufactured shielded high-current toroidal transformer with separate windings for the left and right channels was used.
Apex works in Class A. This has been a tradition for Gryphon Audio Design since 1991. Its developers don't see any other circuit topology. A special feature of the amplifier is the presence of branded Gryphon terminals for connecting speakers. They are suitable for bare wires, banana connectors, petal tips, etc.
Mephisto Stereo, one of the top models in the Gryphon's product line, reflects all the company's developments over its long history.
