Hi all,
since I won't make it in time for the Montreal Audio Show 2015,
(Only leaving planet Vietnam on April the 27th)
I hope some Audio Circle members will post some pictures of the show.

James,

Unless the pic deceives me it appears you are showing the Model T's with 7B's.  I can't imagine for an important show like this that this was a random decision.  Is there a reason you chose them over the 28's or a 4B?

Hi Bill

Yes i used 28B's last year and the model T's are relatively efficient and very easy to drive so i wanted to lower the price point on the system and still show how well they can perform.

After people listen to much more expensive gear than ours it buys me some great comments on the superb value Bryston offers.  :thumb:

That's a great idea. It also shows how fine those 4Bs are as well :thumb: :thumb:

My best moment at the Montreal Audio Show was when I shake hands with M.Tanner. It makes my day. By the way the Middle T are awesome. Great show.

It was great to finally meet you after all these years. As we chatted about on Saturday, the system as displayed was stunning on its own and compared to the other various systems I listened to at the show over the 2 hours, or so that I was there. I heard no other system that approached the Bryston system in the 4 or 5 additional rooms I visited.

The Model T's sounded great and the imaging was divine (Lol...those T's in glossy white are like angels). There was just a great sense of ease and 'fullness' to the system and this was done so at levels that you could comfortably talk over. It just sounded 'right'.

Well, there's a new BDP-2 on the radar for mid-year this year as well as a BHA-1. However, now I want a set of T's later in the year as well.

Thanks for the new music recommendations as well.

Congrats on your success...well deserved.

Cheers

Keith

Hi Al

No that's the new enclosure or case for a 3.5 inch hard- drive if you want to mount your drive in something that matches the Bryston cosmetics. So that is what I used to attach to the BDP-2 for my music at the show.

BRYSTON

Bryston is a going concern. Having started as an amplifier manufacturer, they've expanded their lines to include digital product and now a brand range of speakers.



Their product introductions at SSI 2015 included the BDA-3 DAC (just like the BDA-2, but including DSD, HDMI, etc., , the BP-2 phono stage, moving-magnet, with transformer for moving-coil cartridges in the future), the ACI Micro center-channel speaker , and the Model A powered subwoofer. Bryston had one of the larger rooms (which could almost be called a "hall" and it was busy both times I visited.

The sound of the system featuring the large Model Ts had that by-now-familiar tonal neutrality, powerful dynamics, and good imaging.
