Bryston BCD-1 impressions?

I did forget to mention that I'm using the dacs in the BCD-1
(analog outs)no digital out,as I preferred that to my Benchmark DAC-1 ,if I was then she'd be dependent
on dacs in the preamp or dac.Anyway I like her alot and she'll
be my last CDP.

Drummermitchell, nice honest responce! I too have a true affection for my ARC CD2 and have thought about maybe a change to either seperates or a different Integrated amp (Jeff Rowland) or CDP (ARC CD3, Bryston or Sim Equinox SE) that are in my inteest. Your honesty speaks miles for you as an effective and true choice as opposed to a heart choice.

All I can say is(not that it happens often)is when a component just jumps out at you without me trying to listen
or wanting to hear an improvement.
Three pieces have done that for me so far,my 50as,Torus PIU,
pcs and Bcd-1.if any cable or component degrades my music I definately won't purchase it no matter how much money it costs
or how great the reviews sound,which I have found out quite abit by trial and error(audition,audition).

Teel's negative comments posted simultaneously over three threads concerning the BCD-1, were very unhelpful.

First of all, he doesn't specify the system that the unit was auditioned it, so that we might be able to judge the synergy or lack of same, nor does he specify the conditions of the audition (in a shop for 15 minutes, at home for 48 hours??).

Secondly, he doesn't offer any breakdown of his negative opinion beyond being "not impressed". What was it that the competing units were doing better? What was it, specifically, that he didn't like about how the BCD-1 sounded? While these judgments are of course uniquely his and entirely subjective, at least they take us a little distance past the blanket "didn't like it much".

Stereophile did a bunch of jitter tests on a group of CDP
to make her short the BRYSTON BCD-1 had some of the lowest jitter readings and that was with cdps costing 3-10 times as much.I guess all those perty blue lights,hefty prices and fancy covers don't give us the most important quality
