Future Bryston CD Player Still A Go?

Siltech · « **Reply #200 on:** 20 Oct 2016, 12:17 pm »

Do you no when there shipping BCD-3. On the site said various dates from Bryston. I ordered and paid for one months ago. I'm serious thinking of going to dealer and getting my money back, and buy elsewhere. A lot of delays. I'll speak my mind and say it's ?

Hi

Yes we are still working on it - we were planning on building this week but we received the faceplates and they were not polished correctly so we rejected them.

What is the Canadian MSRP on this new puppy?
James, can you bring a demo unit to "Bryston Day" at Audio One later next month?
Thanks James.

Is this the same problem you mentioned back on Sept. 17th - "Sorry about the delay but the part we use on the CD tray drawer came in defective".

No that was the cover for the CD tray - this is the full faceplates on the front of the CD player.

Are we looking at November, December, January? I'm starting to look at Esoteric players.

Marantz also makes good CDPs that may also do SACD (their SA8004 model).

If you can't wait, Simaudio Moon Neo 260D is another great possibility (it's available now). It's gotten great reviews!

Hi Siltech

Yes we should start shipping CD players in November. This has been a comedy of errors to say the least

The flange that covers the CD drawer came in with the wrong dimensions. Everything else is sitting ready to go so very frustrating and counterproductive for our customers.

I understand if you need to move on.

With the imminent release of the BCD-3, what’s the status with respect of the remote control?
There was some talk of a cheaper alternative than the BR2 Remote Control.
Is one included?

Thanks, David

Hi David

We are working on that idea now.

Geez, show some class people. Bryston is an outstanding company with remarkable customer service. Sh*t happens in manufacturing all the time, especially when new product comes out. Try talking with unhappy customers from some of the "boutique" manufacturers, where they wait 6- 18 months AFTER they paid, with little communication back from the company.

For people to be making open comments about their lack of patience, or recommendations for other companies product, on the Bryston forum moderated by James, is just totally rude. That's what the "personal message " function and/or your dealer are for. My kudos to James for taking the high road.

I won't engage in an argument about it - but there, I spoke MY mind.
