Finally took the Bryston 4B Cubed plunge
I've read a great deal about how Bryston gets things right and it's almost unanimous. With my Bryston CD player and now the 4B Cubed, I'm singing in that same choir. I'm fond of the sound that my Focal speakers produce, but I'd love to hear what B...

mirolab,The more time I spend listening to the cubed, the more I'm in awe. I keep popping in more CDs and spinning more vinyl just for the experience of "better"; better detail, better soundstage, better bass control, etc. I may even bite the bull...

terry9I rarely laugh aloud, but your story got me going. I don't plan on doing any welding with my amp, I think I'll just stick to using it for listening."Built like a tank" is one of the main reasons I looked hard at Bryston. I dealt with custome...

jafant,Everytime you come into the the conversation I smile. It's a real pleasure reading what you have to say and the way you say it. On a different note (pun intended), what about the ModWright upgrade on an 8005 SACD player? You mentioned this ...

elizabethI think you entered into a discussion on Bryston that I started a few months ago,welcome back! I have maybe 50 hours on the 4B Cubed now and I like it, I like it a lot. It's a bigger improvement over the Parasound A21 than I previously st...

jafant,It appears that know and have a passion for audio equipment. At the risk of taking my own thread off on a tangent, what kind of equipment are you using? 
Finally took the Bryston 4B Cubed plunge
When I got back into seriously listening to music about 7 or 8 years ago I was completely overwhelmed by the shear quantity of audio equipment available. I knew that I would go dizzy and most certainly broke trying to indulge in countless combinat...

Silver Resolution Reference Power Cord by Signal Cable. Over the past few years, I've swapped out all of my cables in favor of Silver Resolution. I'm happy with the quality and the prices aren't too insane.

jafant,If you don't have to mortgage your home or sell a kidney to afford it, I'd say buy it. I can't find any negatives with the amp and a 20 year warranty means cost free trouble insurance that's longer than either one of my marriages. One thing...

I bought the amp brand spanking new from Audio Advisor. If you've never dealt with that retailer, they are a class act and I strongly recommend them. A few years back, I purchased my preamp, a Parasound JC 2 BP. I ordered the wrong color by mistak...

Every time I enter into a discussion or start one on this forum, I feel like I've made friends that I'll probably never meet face to face. Your opinions/comments and well wishes never cease to put a smile on my face. You're quality people and I ho... 
Top 5 Tonearms Newer or Vintage Under 2500 That Will Beat anything above/below 2.5k?
I just read and responded to the thread on cartridges and now I'm reading and trying to make sense of this thread. I've come to the conclusion that it's almost like someone strolling down the soda aisle at the supermarket then the liquor aisle try...

vinny55You certainly have a welcome enthusiasm for for trying to gain understanding. Unfortunately, the list you've compiled is so long and the combinations with arms and systems so complex, you'll probably never get the answers that you seek. Hel...
