Hard to believe their latest cubed amps came out about nine years!!! ago so not much new to talk about since their amps are by far their most popular products. They more recently introduced a higher-end (for them) preamp that seemed to land with a thud probably because their preamps unfortunately fly under the radar, which is too bad because I had a BP6 and really liked it a lot. I also think their DACs are very good and likewise are under appreciated although I don’t think they’ve introduced much new there either recently, which isn’t great especially in the digital world. They were bought four years ago so are no longer a family-run business, and that reorg hasn’t produced much by way of new products so not sure what’s going on but they don’t seem to be in any immediate trouble.

BRYSTON is alive and well up here in Ontario. The “old” amps division is still in Peterborough, and their digital division moved to AXIOM’s location in Dwight. https://bryston.com/about-bryston/ it was during the merger that their companies consolidation via merger logistics fell down for a period land created the psst issues on delays in repairs etc.. |
I have nothing but good things to say about Bryston. Their MO is not to be the latest new thing, but to carefully refine their designs and bring only real improvements to their products. The Cubed series is a step up from the previous line. It's the quietest amp I've ever used and is supremely neutral. I have the 3B3 Pro because that's as much power as I need. The fact that it's 35lbs and fits in my rack is a big bonus. But the larger ones are still easier to handle than most high end amps. The Pro version has trim pots on the back to match my preamp gain better. My interactions with Bryston were excellent. I received replies to any questions within hours and the responses were on point. I also had great service from my dealer during the transaction and follow up afterwards. |
