Going from the Adcom GFA 555 ii to the Bryston 4b SST or SST2?


Will there be a noticeable difference in a semi-treated room (early reflections)? I'm considering upgrading. I know both are great amplifiers, but I want to know what exactly is improved other than the noise floor and power.

The 3B SST2 has plenty of power for your speakers that are not a difficult load for an amp. 

@solartea123 Depending on your preamp/front end, it might be beneficial to upgrade further up the chain. What goes in, comes out. Just a thought.

I’d consider doing something like this that’ll give you a better streamer, DAC, and preamp and then address the amp after that.  Right now I’d say the amp is the least of your worries
