Get a load of this Deceptive add for a Gryphon Amp here on AG


So the title is  Gryphon Essence Stereo Power Amplifier Pure Class A 5 Months Old.

You can read the description for yourself.


I make an offer on the amp. Below is the reply I get from the Seller. Maybe its just me but this kind of selling should be BANNED on AG.  Selling Grey Market gear without putting any of it in the description. Total BS...and he isn't even the owner of the amp.  He's in California but says he's selling for somebody else in Massachusetts.



Thank you for your offer that I can accept.
I have some things to explain:
It's imported, from out-of -US distributor.
Gryphon designed it voltage interchangeable, manufactured 220-240V, then set up by distributor's technician to US 120V so you can just plug ( the power cord ) and play.
Gryphon's warranty is not transferable, made very clear in user's manual Page 25. But don't worry. Whenever in need of service, just send to LA and I will take all things ensuing.
If these are fine with you please let me know then I will accept to proceed.
Will ship to you from Massachusetts by the current ( the only ) owner.

I got a Gryphon Callisto 2200 integrated amplifier with 230v. I got it before Gryphon Audio Designs started selling their products here in the US a few years ago.
I want the power voltage changed to 110-120v. Any ideas what/where I should go with this amp. I am the second owner. I tested the amp at our garage which carries a 240v line and it works.
I've read the discussion above and it somehow rekindled this idea that the voltage can be changed.
My gratitude to all that help.
I had a talk with the director of sales of Gryphon Audio products in New Jersey. I forgot the name of the dealer/company, but they can be located at Gryphon's website list of it's international distributors. The other Gryphon distributor/dealer based in California  no longer has ties with Gryphon Denmark.
The gentleman from New Jersey politely listened to my concerns and gladly offered their services to assist me in resolving my predicament. His contact info is in the list of Gryphon's US dealer/distributors. 
I hope this small info helps and again my sincere gratitude to everyone for sharing their best.
