I know Vitus had a falling out with their US distributor a while back, and get the impression that they just decided to select a limited number of dealers and import directly to them. I wonder if Gryphon could/should do the same. They sure get great reviews from owners (Europe and Australia) on various audio forums, and they do maintain an authorized service center in the US.
