Forget Classe electronics...
It's cold.
Nordost vahalla is good, but can't compare with top transparent cables.
BTW, i've got a Nordost digital cable, which is better than Transparent ones;(each brand has its specialty)
Here's what you need to make the BW REALLY WORKING:
A bi amp
with 2 Jolida 1000 in the highs
And 2 Goldmund in the low
Plus a great preamp:
Counterpoint sa5000

If you had just bought all of that, and set it up; what would be the first thing you played on it?

Yeah Burmester makes big digital.
But without tube's magic in the highs, it's disapointing.

Are you saying that DIGITAL cables also affect the sound?
That would be the most ridiculous comment on Audiophile systems so far.

Actually i think the trend with getting high end power cables is a bit strange...On the adverts it says that they "speed up" the power...and that sound rather ridiculous anyways the test says that it actually affects the sounds...but it is pretty strange anyhow

Yes, digital cables affect the sound.
For example, optic fiber doesn't work at all.
I've listen to a Shunyata King Cobra power cable (3000 dollars the power cable) on a big system. We just put one on the preamp and it makes "BOOOM": it's like we changed the whole system...(which was already excellent, btw)

Sorry, but Gryphon is bad. Overrated.
