The output section of Gryphon Mephisto Stereo uses Sanken bipolar transistors which can to deliver momentary peak power of 4,000 watts per channel with-out overload! Gryphon Audio uses original scheme - each of the 40 transistors is bypassed with individual film capacitors and the driver section has its own supply based on the custom-made toroidal transformers. The capacitors are divided into two sections – diver section has 50.000 uF of ultra-fast capacitance, power capacitor bank has big 500,000 uF array. Of course there us no negative feedback employed.
