| Bryston 4B-ST overkill for Paradigm ?? We all have to draw our own line in the sand somewhere... If you do not perceive the Bryston to be worth 3X as much then it will not be a good buy in your eyes. Purchasing the 4BST will no doubt alleviate any amp "upgraditis" you might get with th... | |
| where to find sacd's?? Once you decide what sacd's to buy sign on to www.hmv.com - great prices and if you buy 4 or more then its free shipping. | |
| Bryston 3B-ST or 4B-ST A few reviews at Audioreview indicate that some people prefer the sonics of the 3B over the 4B. If you look at straight power then the 4B will play about 3dB more than the 3B will so its not a helluva lot louder. I have owned both and can tell you... | |

| Tube Pre-amp beneficial? Try befreo you buy but I think adding in a tube preamp will give you what you are looking for. I replaced my Bryston BP25(SS) with a Rogue 66 tube preamp and it has made the largest difference in a positive way with both my former speakers - Acous... | |
| Favorite Xmas movie ? Classic- It's a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart, somewhat modern day - A Christmas Story | |
| Coincident interconnect opninions I have the CST IC's between my Arcam 8se and my Rogue 66 as well as between my Rogue and Bryston 4BST. I find them to be the best copper IC's I have used to date. Let me qualify that I have never auditioned any of the super high end cables such as... | |
| Beautiful Speakers As this model is relatively new and I assume you haven't had them that long - how did you get them in the house without the Wife going along with their look??? My god man, it is my opinion that you have one of the finest speakers that can be owned... | |
| B&O, overpriced artistic piece of audio? While impressive in looks and moderately OK in sonics B&O gear has always impressed those who are looking to impress. You have a very nice system that is heads & shoulders above B&O (IMHO). | |
| Martin Logan with Sonic Frontier Power 3 When I had a pair of Acoustat hybrids (like ML) I found they were grainy when matched with a Bryston pre & amp. I "warmed" up the sound by adding in a tube preamp so in this instance tubes were the answer. Since then I changed the speakers to ... | |

| Who R U? for some time now. Being Canadian we have somewhat limited exposure to some products out there but for the most part we do get a good cross section of great components. Had Bryston gear for 12 years now (various preamps & amps) and have now st... | |
| what is everybody listening to right now I just wish all the tracks were HDCD! | |
| RCA vs. Balanced - Sonic Difference? It will all depend on the distance between the pre and the amp. Over the typical 1 meter cable there will be no sonic difference. Balanced cables reduce the ability to pick up noise over long cable runs. I used both with a previous system and at 1... |
