The CH integrated is $48-52K, depending on options. More M-B/BMW range than Rolls.

I'll take the Diablo 300 at a third the CH price and buy an excellent set of speakers with the difference.

When I was hunting for a 175+ wpc integrated a few months ago, the 700i made my short list along with Vitus RI-100 and PASS INT-250. I think they make both Stereophile's and TAS' short list of recommended integrateds. I don't know why they're not that popular on the forums. I went with the PASS because of power, very good reviews, very recent design and domestic USA service. Moon will need to go to Canada for service, but I didn't have a problem sending a Classe there for service years back, though.

Denver AD ListenUp likes to pair these with B&W and has featured them at the last couple RMAFs with good reviews. I heard first hand from attendees, but you can probably find some on-line reviews and comments.

I do like their design. If I were to have another system, they'd most likely be the integrated I'd pick.

Quite a few owners sold their Gryphon 300s. In the last couple of months, two few months old 300s were sold one for $9k and the other for $10k. Many additional listings as well. Not a good sign. The one that sold for $9k last month had less than 100hrs of usage.
