  • ZENA DAC MODULE

    DACs

    Gryphon Audio ZENA DAC MODULE

    The Zena DAC Module is a high-performance digital-to-analog conversion module from Gryphon. This model was developed primarily for collaboration with the proprietary Zena amplifier. The module is based on the ESS Sabre ES9018 32-bit chip with a sampling rate of up to 384 kHz (PCM), which supports all modern digital audio formats. Supports DSD64 and DSD128 (DSD256/512 for Windows).

  • DIABLO 120 DAC MODULE

    DACs

    Gryphon Audio DIABLO 120 DAC MODULE

    This device is an ideal choice for installation in the Diablo 120 integrated amplifier. After installing the DAC, the Diablo 120's display informs you about the active digital input, the sampling rate, the PCM/DSD format, and the selected digital filter setting.

  • DIABLO 300 DAC MODULE

    DACs

    Gryphon Audio DIABLO 300 DAC MODULE

    The DAC provides higher power output compared to its predecessor: 2 x 300, 600 and 950 watts at 8, 4 or 2 ohms compared to 250, 500 and 800 ohms for the same load from Diablo. The inclusion of the power parameter in the specifications when operating on a load with a resistance of 2 ohms indicates that the amplifier is ready to control the most complex reactive load, the impedance of which can drop almost to the level of a short circuit.

  • KALLIOPE

    DACs

    Gryphon Audio KALLIOPE

    The Gryphon Kalliope digital-to-analog converter, named after her, in addition to supporting the PCM audio format with parameters up to 32 bits / 384 kHz, is one of the few devices of this type capable of receiving a DSD stream. This know-how using pulse-density modulation at sampling rates up to 6.144 MHz, previously used in the production of SACD audiophile discs, continues to live on in the form of an ever-expanding library of files with the highest resolution available to consumers today.
