okay thanks for the response, i'm trying to figure out what direction to go I did learn about the Bryston re-new program. i'm leaning towards the 436's giving them a try the amps are in really good shape with the latest updates from mark Levinson. if anyone else has experience with these ML-436 please let me know....thanks Aaron
Bryston 7Bcubed vs Mark Levinson
hello everyone I'm new to the forum and have been out of the audio hobby for quite some time. Way back in 1992 I bought a new pair of Magnaplaner Tympani 4a's I still enjoy listening to my Maggies but I need to update a few pieces I currently have a pair of Bryston 7B-ST's they still sound great but its time to update i also have an Audio Research REF-3 pre-amp and i listen to mostly classic rock and guitar based jazz my question is I found a pair of mark Levinson 436 mono blocks super shape price is right but i have never had a chance to audition these how would these compare to a pair of Bryston 7B cubed any thoughts is greatly appreciated....
