I bought a Brio a couple of years ago for a bedroom system, solely on the strength of reviews and my experience with the price/performance phenomenon known as the Planar 3. But I've been underwhelmed with the Brio. Nothing wrong with it, really, just a bit dull and uninvolving. I later bought a Linn Majik, which I love; it's worth the step up if you can afford it. You should also hear the NAD C340, which I heard in a store on some small PSB speakers, and it was good.
