Bryston BDA-1


Guys,

Just curious if any of you have noticed a lack of richness with the BDA-1 compared to CDP. It possibly could be that my unit is 5 days old and I don't have the 75 ohm coax cable, which is in the post that may restore some of the qualities I'm missing. Any suggestions will be welcomed.

Thanks,
Wig

Too bad, sorry you are not that impressed. For me, it's the best digital piece of gear I have owned. I don't use my disc player often anymore, mostly digital files over AppleTV, and to be honest mostly vinyl so not much digital.

But, the Bryston has been the most "analog" sounding by far.

I own both and I prefer BCD-1 over the BDA-1, even using the BCD as a transport only. It's close.

I too have both and I prefer the BCD-1.
As jabas states they are close for sure.
I have mine using the analog outs of the BCD-1 into my pre,
using the BCD-1's dacs.I also so use the AES(digital out)of
the BCD-1 into the dac.
