I owned a Bryston 4BST stereo amp and then 7BST monoblocks for several years powering Thiel CS7s. The 7BSTs were eventually bettered by a Krell 400cx stereo amp, if only for its ability to better drive the low impedance. But the Brystons were very musical. They were fed by a Bryston BP25 preamp via balanced cables. An audio friend of mine has a 100 WPC Audio Research stereo amp driving Vandersteen Quattros that sounds fantastic.
Soliciting Member Perspectives: Levinson vs Bryston vs Audio Research
Wanting to start a discussion for which there are obviously ZERO absolute answers. I want to hear various member perspectives on these three marquis brands of audio equipment: pro's vs con's, likes vs dislike & your emotional/visceral experiences.
Why? #1, I think it would be fun & edifying. #2, I am contemplating modifying the direction of my primary 2-channel system in my 'Man Cave' & your thoughts & opinions will be useful.
Please try to avoid pretentiousness, condescension & remember, these are your opinions & not necessarily facts.
Thanks in advance & I hope this proves to be as fun as I think it can be.
