Martin G. DeWulf, Publisher Bound for Sound Magazine, Feb. 1999 WCES 1999 Show Report
"They had great sound, and playing Blood, Sweat and Tears didn't hurt - it was Granite Audio. There's so much going on with this company that I'm almost afraid to start their show coverage. The name Granite Audio comes from the polymer stone like material that they use for loudspeaker cabinets and electronics enclosures. This faux stone is said to be inert and offer a high degree of damping for their tube preamp and power amplifiers. Taken into the "back room" for an audition, a pair of Model 860 monoblocks was making a large 3-way floorstanding Model 280 loudspeaker sing at the top of its lungs. Don't have the space to go into all the details on the electronics, but be assured that the design and function of these components are not of your ordinary fair (you can run without a preamp if you want). What I saw were fresh ideas from guys who love their music. Check 'em out at www.graniteaudio.com for more info. "

Jonathan Scull, Senior Contributing Editor Stereophile May 1999, Page 61. "CES Expensive Tubes"
Moth Audio once again stunned the senses with their retro styling and unusual, to say the least, choice of tubes. The $9600/pair m304TL monoblocks … made a big impression on visitors. As did Granite Audio's faux-granite finishes. Their tubed electronics and speakers are encased in the many-hued stuff that's said to offer good inherent damping characteristics. These are quality tube designs; you'll find Vishay, Alps, Holco, Sprague, and other audiophile parts scattered throughout.
