The Bryston room featured their BDA-2)/BDP-2 digital combo (see review), 7BSST² Single-Channel (Mono) Amplifiers, BP26 Preamp, and the Bryston Mini T Bookshelf Speaker.

My notes read "Nice!" which is all I cared to write, instead preferring to just listen and enjoy …  one of my favorite rooms of Munich 2015.

The Bryston demo booth was an extremely well designed space, the music sounded amazing, and there was great quality coffee.

Bryston system in Munich sounds great, and showed that High-End starts at very normal prices.

I attended the show and can confirm that the Mini Ts did sound great!

I enjoyed the warm welcome at the booth and even got a free capucchino.  8)

Edvard and Brian were wondeful hosts.

Thanks!

It is a diffuser called wave wood made by Vicoustic in Portugal.

We are a dealer and use their products in our showrooms.

The wave wood  provides both diffusion (with the cutout pattern) and absorption (with the foam behind). You can also get them with that front in a bass trap format. And they come in a variety of different colors / finishes and are very reasonably priced. The sound changes surprisingly depending on whether the pattern is horizontal or vertical, with vertical tending to widen the soundstage and provide better focus.  You can see that they are using them to that purpose between the speakers and at the first reflection area. Sound and vision magazine in the U.S. had a write up about them not to long ago.

Bryson is to be commended for using acoustic treatment during a show. Most exhibitors don't bother.

Jon - that's good to know.  I'll have to look at their products at some point.

  Sounds like a great product. Surprised this hasn't come up before. I have always used a wall hanging for years but it would be nice to have something that is a known specification. :thumb:

MEMO: To All Bryston Customers
SUBJECT: Munich Audio Show 2015


May, 2015



“Quite a few of the rooms at Munich went to a far greater effort than simply setting up the system at the back and putting some chairs in some sort of arrangement as you entered. Bryston was one of the companies that went to town on the room setup and feel with a cordoned off area for listening behind a pretty hefty partition that separated you from their extraordinarily good coffee service.



They went the extra mile within the listening area too though, all of the absorbent panels were a lovely wooden finish which matched their lovely Bryston Mini T “compact” speakers. They also matched the benches that we were all sat on and when you combined all of this with the lighting and the ambience they managed to create it was a really great place to be, you could argue that while you were in there it didn’t feel like you were at the same show! It was like you was in a homely cabin in some Canada mountain range, they have had a cowhide rug!

On to the gear though, and they were demonstrating their £3125 BDP-2 Linux based digital player with their £2600 BDA-2 external DAC, the £4250 BP26 pre-amp and a pair of the very powerful £10,500 (a pair) 7BSST mono block power amps. All of which sat on a rather nice, rather large stand, and all powering Bryston’s own £3000 wooden veneer Mini T speaker which was really nice actually as I’ve only ever heard Bryston tech powering PMC speakers prior to this as PMC distribute Bryston here in the UK. I thought that these speakers looked great, the wood veneer could have been a little more convincing but they were imposing and I like that, maybe because they were surprisingly large for a stand mounted speaker at 571mm, 267mm, 250mm.

Something else that was surprisingly large was the sound that was being put out. It was a large involving sound that I couldn’t help but get sucked into. I found it really engaging and above everything extremely easy to listen to. There were no frequency spikes or any harshness from anywhere. We had some really good bass extension and texture which was controlled wonderfully by the 600W powerhouse behind them.

I took away from this room an impression of a really enjoyable, engaging system and the idea that these speakers sounded far larger and far more accomplished than that fairly modest price tag suggested.  I found myself so transfixed that Sonny repeatedly asked me to “hurry up” and “come on” but I just wanted to sit, and listen”

SUBJECT: Bryston Best Sound at Munich 2015 Show


June 2015

Hi Folks!

Some excellent weekend reading for all of you at Bryston.



Please see a copy of the latest Swedish magazine ‘HIFI & MUSIK’ - June 2015 issue.



This magazine is distributed into and covers all of Scandinavia.


Their report from Munich show, text on their photo says:

“Best Sound on the Munich exhibition was in the BRYSTON room. It was so good, that I returned two times to listen.”

We are very happy with their comments and the fact that they picked BRYSTON from all the crowd of products available at the show as the best !

Best regards,

Tor Aamodt Haug

SUBJECT: Bryston Mini T Speaker At Munich


July 2015

Hi Folks,

Please see below some more excellent feedback from a major German audio magazine regarding our demonstration at the recent Munich Audio Show in Germany. 

To compete at this level and receive the accolades we have with a speaker that is many thousands of dollars less than the competition is extraordinary!



“One of the most visually inconspicuous, yet one of the best sounding demonstrations at the Munich Show was in the  AVlTech room exhibiting a complete Bryston audio system.
A solid Bryston stereo system played on their new three-way compact speakers the Bryston ‘Mini T’ speakers”




More sound from a speaker of this size is impossible."
