I am from india and was going to buy a used 3b sst manufactured in 2002 , sold through Singapore dealer . It is understood that Indian distributer will not support the warranty . Sending the amp all the way to Singapore /canada even for small isuues ,will be a very complicated process as well as costly. The other option is that the Indian distributer charges for the labour charge and parts are supported free by Bryston. I had sent an email in this regard to MIke , but have not got the response , which is surprising . May be he was not free .I need to be assured atleast in this regard. I would request James or Mike to please address my issue.
