McCormack vs. Bryston amps

... and those SMC Audio upgrades make a huge improvement in the amps, taking them to a level Bryston can only dream about. Or you can by an updated one on the used market. They do come up from time to time.

Richard V. when demonstrating his speakers with a SS amp almost always used McCormack designs. When demonstrating with tubes he usually uses Audio Research gear.

One advantage of Mc gear is that you can have it upgraded by SmC Audio as your budget permits!

IMHO, McCormack with Vandersteen's!
