In this episode of SoundStage! Australia Lead-In, Edgar Kramer previews Gryphon Audio Designs’ new Antileon Revelation stereo power amplifier—a fifth-generation evolution of one of high-end audio’s most iconic class-A designs.
Building on a lineage that stretches back to the original Antileon and the legendary DM100, the Revelation incorporates trickle-down technologies from Gryphon’s flagship Commander and Apex models. With a massively overbuilt power supply, selectable class-A bias levels, and prodigious output capability, it’s engineered for both control and musical engagement.
Drawing on long-term experience with the previous Antileon Evo, Edgar explores what’s new here—greater resolution, improved low-level detail, and enhanced dynamic contrast. Using reference tracks like “T42” by the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio and “Invincible” from Fear Inoculum by Tool, he offers an early listen into how the Revelation pushes performance further while retaining Gryphon’s signature sound.
