Considering buying a used Gryphon Diablo 250

Thanks guys, it has sold to someone else already. Next time I should move faster.

If you you want to go Gryphon, watch for a Diablo 120, stellar integrated. BTW, Gryphons aren’t known to have many issues. Buying used shouldn’t be a problem, just try to know the history.

A friend of mine who was a Gryphon fanatic for a good 6 years with various amps moved to Aries Cerat and does not regret it.

I have been following Gryphon for many years, I have never heard of any issues in almost all their products. Their design and manufacturing quality is second to none. I have no issue buying a used Gryphon product. I was just wondering how the original Diablo sounded in comparison to the newer one, that's all. 

@phantom_av The Aries Cerat is totally different to Gryphon.

Actually $1000 to ship 2 monos to Europe and back is quite cheap looking at todays rates. Jay must have had some discount. My Esoteric player had to go to Tap in CA for repair from VA. That alone cost $600 in shipping charges. The buy American argument is even stronger these days unless the import brand has a local service center that can handle repairs.
