Have you considered Axiom Audio?  They are an internet direct company which has worldwide shipping.   Due to the their working relationship, Bryston's line up posses Axiom DNA.  Axiom's M80 is closest to the Model T and is even available in a High Power Version.  Not sure if this mark up you mention is because of a dealership setup , but if you can bypass it by purchasing direct it could be an option.

Hi

The Axiom M80 high powered version is similar to our Bryston A2 (Although our A2 has a more sophisticated cabinet) - it is not the same as our Model T.

Thanks James for that clarification.

MEMO: To All Bryston Customers
SUBJECT: Bryston Model T Feedback


Hi James

After 30 yrs of audio, both with my band and my 2ch, I always look forward to an evening of both audio and equipment and an evening with James Tanner is always very informative and satisfying.

James had both his Model T and mini T rooms dialed in perfectly....and I mean perfect!!! The sound staging was big, full and wide, , something we as audiophiles love to here. James’ song choices on this evening were extraordinary to me as I had not ever heard any of them before...I must say that the T series  goes deep and very detailed and came along way since the first prototype I heard 2yrs ago.

Thank you James for a listen and look at your most recent version of the Model T and Mini T… also I loved the sound of the Bryston DAC..Amps and Preamp combination in your setups..

Always a pleasure

James,

For the Model T Signatures what would you recommend for amplifiers.

7b on the bottom and 4b on mids and highs OR something else


Also, could you make the make the TC1 centre a signature version on special order.

You can use a single amp with the Signature and in that case I recommend the 7B's.  If you want to use 3 channels per speaker through the Passive Signature crossover and then I would add the 4B.

Never done it on the Center speaker but we could probably do it as a special for you.

Hi

Dynaudio C1 MK1's and Bryston Middle T’s


This is the change that I made!



I don't regret the change at all. Most notable change for me was a lot less 'bloom' in the midrange (that I didn't even realize was so accentuated previously) from the C1's, and much deeper and controlled bass. I can't really think of an area that didn't improve to be honest, though personal preference might lead one to prefer that midrange bloom of course.

Compared them both side by side with the same gear in my room too, just to be sure   (don't mind the missing heater boards and wires... was amidst some renovations!)

I do love the C1, had them for about 5 years before changing. It did take me about a week to get used to the new sound, but it didn't take too long to find I could dig deeper into the recordings and hear more of the detail than with the C1. The soundstage can get absolutely huge with the Middle T! The bass as well feels generally more subtle but more powerful, if that makes much sense. Top to bottom smooth is maybe a better way to put it. If there's a rumble, the speakers will reproduce it, and it doesn't sound like the cabinet itself doing the shaking.

Hi James,

I know diving into a new products has its quirks, but ive been ready trying the signature T's for some time know, and you keep coming up with driver updates....

You have been getting some rave reviews, which is really tempting, though to be honest,  these driver updates make me fear embarking on a 'beta' product. On a digital product like the BDP's i can appreciate that somehow, on a set of high end Loudspeakers like you're positioning the Signature T1's,I would a lot less....

Will you stop changing it after the recent updates  :scratch:

Cheers,
Marius

Hi Marius

Sorry I can not promise you I will not continue to make our products perform better.  I feel by offering these improvements as a plug and play option at very reasonable prices gives our customers a way to improve over time without having to purchase new speakers to replace older designs. I feel freezing a design and announcing new models is a little disingenuous.

Nothing is perfect but the pursuit of better performance on an ongoing basis is one of my main design goals with the Bryston speakers.

HI James,

I've been with the Middle T's for a month or so. I'm very pleasantly surprised as I didn't have the opportunity to listen to them prior to purchasing.

I read what was out there on the internet all positive and considered my system room size etc. and took a chance.

Most enjoyable is the articulate full bass while not overpowering the upper regions. The upper region is sweet defined and never fatiguing . A very seamless speaker that just disappears they do everything well. I've had some touted high resolution or revealing speakers in the same listening space and there is nothing lacking with the Middle T. I'm impressed and very much enjoying the music.

Best,
Don

Hi James,

I have had the Bryston A2 speakers at home this last weekend and they are dam good for the money.

Probably the best buy in the industry for the money and I have had many, many speakers in that room over the years!!

Hi Oldguy

Thank you for the kind comments.  Most people are surprised as you were at the build quality given the price category that the Bryston speakers fall in to.  Wait till you hear them!!!!


james

Hey Brandon

Have you had a chance to listen to the Mini T's yet?

I've seen a mini platform supporting the Signature Model T Passive crossover in several pictures such as the one below.  Does this platform come with the Model T Signature or is it an aftermarket item?  If the latter does anybody know make, model number and price?

Hi,

First time I have seen this - it is definitely aftermarket - where did you get the picture from?
