James....what's the current wait time for a 4b3, 17" black?

Thanx

Hi Bud

It will depend on colour and size but about 2-3 weeks from order.

Hi James,
  Do you have any plans to build a one box 6 channel amplifier solution for the upcoming active crossover for the model T . S Possibly even a mix of different power outputs for the various channels!

Thx

I am thinking custom 3 channel amps for the Model T.

Something like a 6B with different outputs per channel? I like the the 4B/7B chassis size, but I have a feeling that you're thinking bigger power for the woofers that would need the 14B/28B chassis size  :lol:

Yes I am thinking a 14B size with one side being the 14B and the other side two 4B modules.

When we do the Middle T we could use a smaller version.

Aha. A custom 14B makes a lot of sense

Thanks James,
  I was thinking a 4B,3B,2B configuration as I currently use a single 4BSST2 with no power issues. I think this configuration would still provide more power than present and keep costs down!

Hi

Due to the impedance of the different drivers the 600/300/300 works the best with the Model T's due to equal power delivery to each set of drivers.

Hi

Yes - I am thinking if this works I would add the Middle T in an active version as well.

Just picked up my 4B3, sorry if the following has already been asked:

Thanks!

I've done something very similar to this actually. I had a 2B on horns, 3B on woofer, and 4B on a sub.

MEMO: To All Bryston Customers
SUBJECT: 28B Cubed Amplifiers Dealer Feedback

December 2016

Hi James

First, let me say that I am not someone to gush about new audio equipment; god knows I have had my share of gear.




We just got done installing the new Bryston 28B Cubed amps, and fired them up. Cold out of the box, they are freaking Amazing!


I mean they made my R1's sound like I have never heard before. They have so much authority, depth, finesse, dynamics, bass (like I never heard; 2nd time I said that) and imaging; I could just ramble on!


This is truly an anomaly in the audio industry, where an amplifier that retails at this price runs circles around it's competition.


James and Crew;

Kudo's for creating some of the finest electronics on the planet, at any price! The 28B Cubed amps are Astonishingly Good, run don't walk to your nearest dealer and hear them for yourself!

So much more to come; frankly, I am still stunned!

Ivan


P.S. - I just sold a pair of them from my very first demo! ;)

I don't own a cubie, but I will say this.

There are 3 Brystons in my system that are there for life.
14B-squared. BDA-1. BDP-1.

HI James:

Nice review in the Absolute Sound magazine on the Bryston BP26 preamp and 14B Cubed amplifier – just got my copy today

It’s as nice as the magazine could publish given their predilection to love $100K + equipment, crazy cables and “accessories”

Again great review from AS, and a great Stereophile review on the BDA-3 DAC as well.

Quite a year for Bryston with new product introductions and favorable press all around (I don’t think there was one bad review all year.

Seems like a “pivotal year” in the history of the company

Best and Happy Holidays
