Are some of you familiar with Pilium Audio ?
I would be interested to learn about this Greek brand that seems to be very good competition for Audionet, CH Precision, Soulution and Vitus.

Pilium Audio - Audio Components
 
more please, price , output etc ,:)
never heard of a greek amp, ever, but it looks hi-end, will look some more, just interested, more and new is good,
by the way a fantastic place to holiday, :D
just been on pinkfish, website they have heard of these,i think a , hastings, has these , looks fascinating, in england,
 
The only dealer that carries the brand in my country has the Leonidas Integrated in store, i will try to go audition it when COVID calms down.
 
It would be nice if someone could do a shootout between Pilium Alexander-Hecules combo and Audionet Stern-Heisenberg combo.
 
Besides looks & power, AudioNet Heisenberg is 66kg while Pilium Hercules is 107kg.
It all comes down to your sound preference in the end.

It would be most likely very difficult to a find a dealer that carries both of these brands to make a shootout.
 
Bob at Rhapsody Audio plans on pairing the Magico M9s with Pilium - Pilium Elektra DAC>>>Alexander dual chassis pre>>>>four Hercules mono amps, all TelluriumQ Satement cables.

I apologize, as I wasn’t suggesting that you would travel from France to NY ... I was merely attempting to demonstrate the level of quality of Pilium – that being the intended pairing with a $750,000 speaker – IMO speaks highly of the amp … Sorry to give any other impression.
 
I read the review, I don’t know, I wasn’t feeling it. It was sort of saying “it’s good, but not as good as...”

I’ll take gryphon or Boulder all day long myself.

I will be in unique position to do this sometime this summer. I will have Pilium in-house with Alsyvox Botticelli X, and a fellow audio geek up in Spokane has the Alsyvox with Audionet. We’ll have a chance to visit one-another and compare. I’ll do my best to report back both our opinions.
 
Hi Bob, so what were your finding about Pilium VS Audionet ?
I have heard the Audionet Humboldt and the Vitus SIA-030 but not the Pilium Leonidas yet.
I'd like to know what is the flavor of the Leonidas compared to the Humboldt and the SIA-030.
So far the Humboldt is my favorite super integrated but i'm sure the Leonidas is in the same ball park.
I'd like to pair one of these integrated with Borresen 03 speakers in the future.

I wish I could give you an answer. I have had the full Pilium stack (Alexander pre-amp, Achilles power amp) in house now for only a couple weeks, and haven’t been up to hear the Audionet with the Alsyvox.
