| Bryston - Stereo or Monoblock I am running the Magnepan LRS with a Bryston 4BSST and it runs HOT with those speakers, I mean not that it can't take it, but still. Anyway I also have the 7BSST2 and would highly recommend those amps. If you have bigger $$ there are a pair of 1... | |
| My used Magnepan 1.6's are missing sparkly treble. Why? Well I can hear up to 14k maybe a bit higher according to the tone generator. It is a pretty annoying tone at 14k and I would like to say I can hear it at 15k too but maybe not so much. | |
| My used Magnepan 1.6's are missing sparkly treble. Why? Seems a bit telling that you can't hear above 11k with your headphones too? You may want to get your hearing tested and get that equalizer as well. Maybe the hearing test will help you set up the equalizer? Or go to a stereo store and see if yo... | |
| Grado Hemp Headphones The box included an XL tee shirt in cotton so that set the tone. The carrying case looks nice and at 35 bucks an ok deal. Lovely picture and packaging inside the box. These guys ooze class and quality.The phones are more solid than they appear ... | |
| Schiit Sol or Rega Planar 3? Personally I would recommend the Rega P3 with the Elys 2. Kind of a "no brainer" in terms of set up being idiot proof. The 100 bucks off is nice and honestly I think Rega cartridges are very underrated. The arm is very nice, the platter is nice... | |
| Grado Hemp Headphones The Bong Show? OK got the word from Rich that the phones are shipping and be here Monday! Pretty stoked... | |
| magnapans.7i and subs I have the Magnepan LRS and two REL T5i and can assure you this is a wonderful and relatively inexpensive solution to deeper bass. I would recommend monoblocks with this set up because it works well this way and what Magnepan designed with. Brys... | |
| Thinking about swapping out my Class D SDS-470C for a pair of Schiit Aegir on Magnepan LRS I would suggest a Bryston 4B. There is a 4BSST2 and a 4BST on Audiogon for sale. Go the former for sound quality and warranty or the latter for price and the fact it has been reworked. I am using the 4BSST with the LRS right now and it's a good... | |
| Is Magnepan is coming out with it's own amplifier The bigger "issue" from my recliner chair is that Magnepan undercuts their dealers by selling the LRS for a low price, shipping it directly, and giving a money back guarantee. Next step up is the .7i which is 2x and the 1.7i which is 3x. Frankly... | |
| About to purchase Bryston BP-2MM moving magnet phono stage for Sondek LP-12 OP I seem to recall that you will need a Y adapter to make this work. You can't just plug it into the MPS-2 "empty" connection. That's my recollection I could be wrong of course. | |
| About to purchase Bryston BP-2MM moving magnet phono stage for Sondek LP-12 Never heard it but do have the same preamp and mps-2 and the local Bryston dealer raves about their phono stage they even have a tt now hmm what's next a Bryston cartridge. As for me I have the lowly rega mini but you know what i kinda like it a ... | |
| Bryston BP-26 VS 17Cubed So what's your verdict? 17 or 26? I'm trying to decide if the BDA1 and BDP1 are even worth considering and too stupid to know other than they have gotten pretty cheap. I like cheap. BDA3 not cheap. | |
| Bryston BP-26 VS 17Cubed Bryston. The red headed step child of the audio world. Never quite good enough to some, always having to prove itself. You would have thought that 20 year parts and labor warranty would have done it. Nope. Still doubters. Sigh. | |
| Bryston 7B3 compared with McIntosh MAC6700 Integrated What you have described is essentially synergy in reverse. You broke the Mac chain with the Bryston. As suggested, maybe go with a Bryston probably BP17 preamp with the 7B3 for example. That would provide synergy and be a better combination. P... | |
| Bryston 7B3 compared with McIntosh MAC6700 Integrated Confusion will be his epitaph, as he crawls a Macked and broken path if he likes it we can all sit back and laugh but I fear tomorrow he'll be crying yes I fear tomorrow he'll be crying |
