Bryston preamps

Thanks all. Yes I might be a little anxious and not estimating the impact the 14b3 will have

Sorry SA-10 .

Marantz 8005 sacd player. PS audio P1000 power regenerator powering everything but the amp. OHM 5000 speakers with Canare 4s11 speaker wire. Pangaea and PS audio power cords and Pangea SE interconnects. Analog set up is a fully upgraded AS final tool TT with Graham 2.2 forearm and an Ortofon 2m Black cartridge and an Acoustech ph1 p phone preamp. I have the speaker cables 2 feet off the floor. All components isolated with cones or damping material. Dedicated AC line

Im actually using a 14bsst now and going to the cubed version. There is some glare in the 7k region. That according to a free spectrum analyzer app. Maybe I should wait and see if the cubed Bryston tames it. I have acoustically treated my room with curtains , panels and tube traps.. Vinyl does not have as much harshness but I am upgrading to a Marantz as-10

Hey soix. Those OHM speakers are actually closer to $20k speakers in real value.
1. You buy direct from the manufacturer bypassing the dealers.
2.The soeakers do not have to be very robust and reinforced since the sound waves travel off the cones differently.
3. There is only one driver and tweeter. They are quality ones unlike mid price speakers with multiple drivers where cheaper ones would have to be used to compete costwise. 
4.Down side is the bigger ones are power hungry and they might not be the most dynamic. They do take a while to break in.
For me they do convey the music. 
Now I just cant wait for the 14b3.  

Oh I will give the new equipment a very good listen and see how they perform.

Now that would be interesting!

When I went from the BP 25 to the BP 17 I had more bass and the background wasn't noisey.
