Memory cards are one of the things that I don’t reckon many people think about. They look for the cheapest of the biggest they can afford, without a second glance at meaningful, confusing figures like data transfer speeds and interoperability testing.

If you’re an audiophile who wants distributed audio around the house you’ve got plenty of choice of manufacturers to favour. Well, Gryphon would like to add them to their list, and their Mirage amplifier is just the product they’re planning to lure you in with. A pre-amp main box with detachable control section that can communicate [...]
