At Highend 2013 - Altair II to the left, Hercules II to the right.

Very nice, Hercules II looks very sharp. I really prefer the lower profile amp, possible now to squeeze it into an HRS rack.

What's the list price on this gear?

Anyone have any pictures under the hood of the amp?

Hercules 2 monos at 100kg each.

Gryphon Mephisto's looks small compared to them, but they weights more.

Thank you Wizard. I bet that combo sounds wonderful.

This is in Vietnam I believe...Cuong Pham on Audiogon I believe? I have admired his systems over the years...and he went thru massive iterations finding a new SOTA ref speaker (originally horns if I get this right)...and had 3-4 photos with different statement speakers. Ended up with the big Kharmas and Mephistos...and now it seems Hercules as well. Stunning.
