The 4B amps ae just amplifiers - - not integrated; however, for the cost difference between some of the higher-priced amps and the 4B, you could aquire an excellent preamp.    Just a thought

plb02have to agree with dpac996. I've had various interations of the 4b, and now using a 4Bsst2 to drive Thiel 2.7s  (sensitivity 87). Very happy with Bryston amps, preamps and CD spinner. BTW: The 4B amps come with a 20 year warranty.

ronkentAnother  reason for a manufacturer to burn in electronic devices is to ensure they continue to work to specifications under the advertised voltages and loads. If solid state components are to fail, they'll do it very early on.  It's for the...

prof, When I get into that mood with the 2.7s,  I Cheat!!Yeah, I cheat and pull out my STAX Lambda Pro Headphones for a while.  Entirely different listening experience.

I remember only slight differences between the 2.7 and the 3.5, Sensitivity of the 3.5 was 88 db, the 2.7 is 87db; however, the 3.5 was a infinite baffle speaker with (to me) a slightly lower bass. The 2.7 is a bass reflex design.  Not being able ...

tms,  I had two conversations with Jim Thiel while I was using the 3.5s. He steered me to the Bryston amplifiers. So far, I've had a 4B in its variations, and am now using a 4Bsst2 for the 2.7s. With a 20 year warranty, I don't have to worry if so...

For me, the SS2.2 is ideal, as you're not yanked up in your seat when the sub cuts in. Just the impression of the 2.7s low frequency being extended.   None of that  "Hey, there, I"m a SUB"

I added a SS2.2 sub and positioned it between the 2.7s (PX05 crossover).  Nice

Tom and ProfI was able to listen to both the 3.7s and 2.7s at my dealer for several hours over a couple of days.. (I could afford either pair)Maybe it's just me, but after continuous listening sessions, I decided The 2.7s would "wear" better for e...

DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
I guess I'm antediluvian. I got my basic training in things dealing with AC current before WWII, as I was a ham radio operator and built my own transmitter/power supply and antennas. I had to sit for an FCC exam to get my operator's ticket. I had ...
