What tube amplifiers/integrated amplifiers are you all using with your T series speakers and what are your results?

The venerable Ernie Fisher of Inner Ear fame held court inspiring visitors on how to set up a high resolution system for less than $10,000.

As always, the sound was quite good in his room, this time with the three-way stand mounted Bryston Mini T loudspeaker ($2600) set up on the room diagonal. They were powered by a remote controlled 12 wpc Class A Simply Italy integrated tube amplifier ($2500) running EL34 tubes fed by a server I didn't recognize (Audia Flight?). About $1000 worth of Zen cables (which I presume means Acoustic Zen) connected everything. Ernie proudly complained that he is the oldest member of the OAFS (Old Audio Farts Society).

 Hey, how can you argue with a guy that puts together such a fine sounding room, and is still vertical? A lot of wisdom and experience resides in this man.

Hi Folks,

We have had many requests from custom installers to produce an INWALL version of the Model T series loudspeakers.

Here is a sneak peek of the the Model T. 





We are also going to produce a Model A1 inwall version as well as a MINI T inwall.

James:

I know that the "perfect" match for my future Model T's would be the 14Bsst2 as we discussed previously.  However, I also have access to a very attractively priced McIntosh MC452 local to me in Dallas.  I know you represent Bryston and probably are uncomfortable answering this publicly, but what are your thoughts about the MC452 driving your Model T's, and have you ever heard this combo?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve

No sorry I have not heard the combo but McIntosh builds a quality product so it should be fine.

Sorry I asked. This is one of those, what did you expect him to say questions! Bad question resulting in worthless answer!

Thanks James. I am hoping someone will come on that can describe an experience with McIntosh amps and Bryston speakers as I understand there is a different voicing or sound from Bryston amps vs McIntosh amps (like MC452).

Of course a quality amp (McIntosh) will be fine with the Bryston Speakers.  I would say you had an unnecessary question and got an honest answer.  By the way several years ago I switched from McIntosh to Bryston and would not go back.

Relax guys, if anything I was just as harsh on myself as I should have known better.  I would gladly remove the last post as it doesn't reflect my respect for James and the Bryston brand.  I hesitated writing the question but I honestly would like to know if anyone has experienced Bryston speakers powered by McIntosh.

Hi Folks,

Was just informed that the Bryston Mini T Speakers will be getting a special award from a major US Magazine as well as a full feature review.


Favorite quotes from review:


“We are very happy to give them (Bryston Mini T Speakers) one of our Exceptional Value Awards for 2015.”

“I’ve had very few true jaw dropping moments in HiFi, but this was one of them!”



The full review will be available shortly.

Still wondering what, if any, ACer's have used?
