Sydney Audio Club Meeting - July 2022

10th July 2022: Nigel Ng, from Audio Connection, will be featuring the Gryphon Diablo 300 Integrated Amplifier with KEF Blade 2 Meta speakers and a Wilson Audio LoKE Subwoofer along with a Grimm Audio MU1 Streamer supported by a Nordost QNET Ethernet Switch.

In addition to showcasing the wonderful system and streaming technology Nigel will be presenting a 'TechTalk' at 12:30pm on the topic of Streaming, Streaming Services and Devices. This interactive discussion should answer all your questions about streaming. Please arrive around 12.15 pm for the TechTalk. If you happen to be late just quietly slide into a seat and join the discussion. As our club is based on mutual respect, especially in these open presentations, let us remain respectful towards one another’s views and opinions.
 
There will be a break from 1.30 pm – 2 pm to grab a bite and a drink before the meeting starts at 2 pm. There will be another afternoon tea break around 3.15 pm or so.


Details of the system:

Amplifier: Gryphon Diablo 300 Integrated Amplifier - Gryphon Diablo is quite possibly the most popular High End integrated amplifier of all time. Despite sales of thousands of units, its virtual absence from the second-hand market is a reliable indicator of the extreme loyalty of Diablo owners. Now, the Gryphon Diablo makes way for the Gryphon Diablo 300, a revitalised iteration of the technologies and components that made it the world’s most award-winning High End integrated amplifier.  https://gryphon-audio.dk

Speakers: KEF Blade 2 Meta - Sharing the same DNA as Blade One Meta, Blade Two Meta offers all the acoustic prowess and iconic design on a slightly smaller scale. Blade Two Meta features Single Apparent Source technology with four 165mm (6.5 in.) force-cancelling bass drivers and 12th generation Uni-Q® driver array with MAT™. https://au.kef.com/products/blade-two

SubWoofer: Wilson Audio LoKE Subwoofer - Wilson Audio's smallest subwoofer that will reshape your thinking around small footprint subwoofer systems. https://wilsonaudio.com/products/loke/loke​
 
Streamer: Grimm Audio MU1 Streamer - Worthy of the name Grimm Audio the MU1 music player is the ultimate digital music source. The Linux-based computer system brings solid data integrity. The in-house-designed FPGA interface board, which forms the heart of the MU1, offers breakthrough performance levels in format conversion and receives automatic updates, and the MU1 also features Grimm Audio's trademark ultra-low jitter clock. https://www.grimmaudio.com/hifi-products/music-players/mu1/
 

Following afternoon tea the second half of the music sessions will be our popular music BYO.  Members and guests are welcome to offer music to share with us all.  So bring along your favourite music on CD, SACD or USB thumb/flash drive. All we ask is that the music and recordings be interesting. We'll ask you to tell us a little about the artist/recording before it is played. Tracks over 6 minutes will be faded out, to give everyone a fair go.

Whether you are a novice or a seasoned veteran, you will have the opportunity to listen, learn and share your experiences with others.  Feel free to come and hear the capabilities of the system, or to just share the experience with like-minded music lovers in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

Guests are welcome – we are a very friendly club so you don't need to know anyone to join us for an afternoon of fine music and sound.

If you are a guest and would like to attend, please email <enquiries@sydneyaudioclub.org.au> to ensure we will not exceed the room numbers for the current Covid  Guidelines.
