... WHAT POWER CORD(S) ARE PLAYING IN YOU SYSTEM TODAY? The Brysron power cords that came with their BCD-3 CD spinner, BDA-3 DAC, BP17 cubed preamp, 4B cubed amplifier. | |
Thiel Owners batmanfan,As you're keeping the 28B monos, I'd suggest you consider the BP17 cubed preamp. IMO, it's a neutral preamp, and neither adds to nor subtracts from what is on a CD. It does require some additional break-in beyond the 100 hours of te... | |
The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? A family member remarked: "Thank Goodness it's paid for!" | |
Stax amplifier vs Stax adaptor I still have my Lambda Pro headphones and SRM-1 Mk 2.Use them when my neighbors complain about my 2 channel stereo. Classical CDs only via Bryston spinner and preamp. | |
Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system? Bryston has a full line of active speakers, crossovers and amplifiers. | |
How thick should the front baffle of speakers be? Back in the mono days (well before Thiele-Small ) I built a woofer using two 15" JBL drivers mounted on a sand-filled plywood "sandwich." Getting the back panel of the "sandwich" not to leak the sand turned out to be a problem.Sound? Yikes! | |
Thiel Owners jazzman7By and large, I agree; however, for classical music nuts, there are only two full-catalog choices for streaming, viz., Idagio and Primephonic. Only Idagio has a desktop app, so that would limit me to Idagio.Guess I'm antedeluvian, as I do... | |
Thiel Owners jafant,Still alive and kicking, and enjoying my system more each day. IMO, the 4B cubed is an excellent choice for the 2.7s.My "listening room" is 16 x 24 x 12, with a large opening on one long side to another room. However, I don't play my music ... | |
Thiel Owners There's a pair of 7.2s for sale on e-Bay for $6500 | |
Thiel Owners prof,Agree! My 3.5s didn't project this way. The 27s and SS2.2 sub have made me a very happy camper. George | |
Thiel Owners batmanfanIt takes a while for the BP17 cubed to break in. Although Bryston runs each one for 100 hours, I ran mine for another 100-150, as it gradually improved over time. I exchanged a BP-26 for the 17 cubed. No contest. Disclaimer: I listen to ... | |
Thiel Owners batmanfanI'm running Thiel 2.7s with a Bryston 4B cubed amp and BP17 cubed preamp. IMO, Bryston preamps and amps were made for each other. (I envy you with those 28B monos!)The BP 17 cubed can be ordered as a stand alone preamp, with an excellen... | |
Any Love For Bryston Here? I began with Bryston when Jim Thiel recommended a 4B series amplifier for my Thiel 3.5 speakers. Since then, my electronics have been Bryston: The latest 4B cubed amplifier and BP17 cubed preamp are top SQ for a collection of classical CDs, playe... | |
CD"S I have an extensive collection of RedBook classical CDs. My old Sony CD player finally quit, so I had the choice of ether continuing to use CDs or go to streaming. I quickly discovered the selection of what I wanted to hear were not available on... |
