Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $1250.00 from Audiogon

Summary:
This amplifier has exactly the features I wish for: RCA and XLR input, selectable sensitivity, superb speakers output terminals, and it is not too bulky.
The built quality is great, as usual with Bryston, and their service and warranty (20 years !) are second to none.
But I was slightly disappointed by the sound. It was a little bit boring, the soundstage not very well defined. It sounds like a slightly improved Parasound HCA-1000A, but is inferior to a Conrad-Johnson MF2250A (medium) or a Musical Fidelity A3.2.

Strengths:
Features, built quality / warranty / service

Weaknesses:
Sound could be better at this price level
