| Need feedback from Bryston amp owners These are great comments from all; but a Bryston amp is a great bargain, goood bang for the buck, backed by a 20 year warranty. Sure there other amps that sure pass the Brystons but what will that set you back. I own the 4BST mated to a Cary slp98... | |
| Time to upgrade - need advice I use the Bryston 4bst mated to a Cary slp98 with great results; rock, classic rock, jazz, blues it all sounds great. | |
| Interconnects for Bryston Power & Pre Amp I use AZ Matrix II between the Bryston 4Bst and Cary SLP98L with great results. | |
| Tube preamp with great pace?Cary, Supratek, etc.? I bought a brand new Magnum 99 from Paragon Sound up near you, and the entire time I owned it, the preamp never came around to sounding exceptional. Bought all sorts of NOS hoping that might be the ticket, but no luck. I then purchased a Cary SLP9... | |
| Best Pre-amp for Bryston 4BST I own the 4Bst and have used 4 different preamps. Three were tube based and one SS. Tubes compliment Bryston's power and dynamics by adding that tube charm--liquid midrange and sonic decay . You will be amazed at how tubes can transform your syste... | |

| Cary slp98p questions I also own the SLP98 (linestage). What a great sounding piece of equipment. It came with the Cary's upgraded oil caps, which I thought sounded below average. I replace them with Hovlands - "WOW" - they took the Cary to a higher quality sounding pr... | |
| Rogue 99 vs. BAT 3i Kevziek, the tubes that I was using in the Rogue came from various sources ....the supplied NOS Russians that came with the unit, 2 complete sets of NOS RCA, Phillips, from Mark Obrien (Rogue), 2 complete sets NOS RCA, Sylvania from Andy at Vintag... | |
| Rogue 99 vs. BAT 3i Kevziek, my comments on the Rogue Magnum 99 were not meant to upset you or anyone else. Lvk47 asked for oppinions concerning this preamp and I responded, as did Scottht.Yes the 99 is well built solid piece of equipment; but solid doesnt translate ... | |
| Rogue 99 vs. BAT 3i Lvk47, I can only give you my oppinion on the Rogue 99. I owned a Magnum 99 that I bought new; it replaced a AES AE-3. The AE-3 is a great sounding preamp at a fraction of the cost. I bought the Magnum 99 never hearing it. I read user reviews and ... | |
| Advice for high end tube preamp for ss amp HELP I have owned both, the Rogue Magnum 99 and the Cary SLP98. I found the Cary a much better match for a ss amp, it brought a greater sence of a tube signature to the sound, that the Rogue lacked. FWIW, both preamps were auditioned by Stereophile wit... | |
| Interconnect between VTL tube pre and Bryston amp Ptm, I use Acoustic Zen Matrix 2 between a Bryston 4Bst and a Cary Slp98 with great results. Superior sounding cable that you dont have to go broke for to own. | |

The Marsh or Mac might be a good choice also, but I cant comment on their sound,(never audition... | |

| Audible Illusions L-2 vs. Cary SLP-98 Stumpie, you have listened to the Cary in your system and liked the sound that you heard, and until you are able to audition the the AI L2 in your system, you will not be able to make a true evaluation between the two preamps. Could the Audible Il... |
