Bryston B60 - Is it worth it?

I’m newbe in hi end. I bought used Bryston to be the heart of my system as reference device. Recently I find review in hifichoice http://www.hifichoice.co.uk/archive/perl/475_printreview.htm . It describes Bryston as amp with sound problems. I’m wondering if it reason to be a stereophile grade B not a grade A amp? Or it related to much higher priced amps? Or it not so good amp and only this guys are honest? Many people who used and made comments about this amp on audiogon already sold it (at least I understand so from messages). They unhappy with amp? Should I go for another amp? Any comment will be appreciated.
It for small bedroom 9” x 11” with no real preferences yet.

I read the HiFiChoice review. That magazine considers price in their reviews. The B60 according to the review cost twice as much in the UK as it does in North America. Their good but not outstanding review reads like they would have recommended if the price were less. There is better to be had for that much money in the UK market.

The same thing happens in reverse with Cambridge Audio equipment. The D500SE CD player and A500 amp would sell for at least $100 less if it were at the UK/EU price in North America.
