Bryston won't be as worm as NAD, but will definitely bring tighter bass, faster response. Not sure about noise floor vs. NAD which is probably not a substantial improvement if any. For ultimate improvement vs. NAD I'd recommend finding Bel Canto S300 the steal under $1k if found used. Used to be lots now can't see any.
Bryston 3B ST vs NAD C 355BEE
Hey everyone! I've recently moved and my system has undergone a bit of downsizing and overhaul.
I swapped out my Bryston 7B SST2's and Axiom M80's for a NAD C 355BEE and a pair of Monitor Audio Silver RX6's. My preamp is still a Bryston BP25 and I only use the NAD as a power amp.
The new rig sounds excellent. Warm, detailed, coherent and lots of low end. I'm considering swapping the NAD with a Bryston 3B ST to lower the noise floor, tighten up the bass response and improve dynamics but I'm not sure if it will be as warm and coherent as the NAD.
Would anyone who is familiar with NAD and Bryston products care to weigh in on this one?
