“Hi James

I heard the Model T at HiFi Centre the other day. They had them running on a new 4B a 26B pre amp and a Linn cd player with a digital out to your BDA-2 DAC

Pure  Magic !!!

I plan to buy a new pair from that HiFi Center before the years end. What an amazing pair of speakers. I don't understand how a company that doesn't make speakers hits a home run like this on the first go around.

Were you involved in the design?”



Hi Robert

Yes I spent about 2 years trying different drivers and cabinets etc. and finally arrived at what you hear now.

I think I have owned every speaker there is to own over the many decades I have been doing this and I really knew what I wanted the speaker to have - huge dispersion and no dynamic compression at a state of the art level but at prices mere mortals could afford!.

I think the actual saying is, "The whole is greater than the sum of the parts" (as James says), which in my opinon means the synergy of the entire system takes it to a level beyond the excellence of the individual components. I did not attend RMAF and hear the Bryston system, but I do own an entire Bryston system from power isolation unit through to speakers and that's what I hear.

Hi Gene

I am sorry we do not but we have a dealer that may be able to help.  Where are you located?

james

James,

Since there are no US dealers anywhere as close to me as the 5.5 hrs. to the border at Niagara Falls and 6.5 hrs. to GTA I have two questions: What is the closest dealer over the border from the falls to GTA and would it be possible to audition the Model T's there.  I'm assuming I would then have to order them from the US dealer in Milwaukee.  Not sure how that would work out for the Canadian dealer hosting the demo.

Thanks!

These sounded quite good, but apparently the floor standing Model T's weren't there?

Hi Tom,

Yes we felt showing people what we can do at $2695 a pair was a better approach than using the big guns (Model T Sigs).

what are the differences between the Model A ,1300 a pair and the Mini T's ,2700 a pair....both being 3 way bookshelf speakers

Hi Gene

You mean the new Mini A Bookshelf at $1200 the pair vs the Mini T Bookshelf at $2695 ?

james

[gene9p]

YES....my error   

[James Tanner]

YES....my error   

The Mini A is a 3-way but a 3 inch Mid and a 6.5 inch Woofer as opposed to the Mini T with a 5.25 inch Mid and 8 inch Woofer.  The Mini T is a MUCH bigger speaker and will play louder and go deeper.

james

[gene9p]

do you have the measurements for the actual size of the MINI A's?

[James Tanner]

do you have the measurements for the actual size of the MINI A's?

Still working on them but I would say ay this point 1/2 the size of the Mini T's

Customer Response Bryston Middle T Speakers

Hi Folks;

I had some concerns about my 3B clipping occasionally into my new Bryston Middle T speakers at high volumes:

I received an e-mail from James Tanner of Bryston and he said so long as the clipping was occasional there was nothing to worry about but if it was clipping "with the beat" I need more power.

He was also of the opinion that the very, very low distortion of the middle T allows you to turn them up louder than normal without realizing how loud they really are.

Power concerns aside, these are excellent speakers, and I'm very impressed with Bryston's personal touch.

Class acts all the way.

Hi James

I heard the Model T the other day At Whitby Audio...Dan demoed them for me.
 
My god they are outstanding.
 
You must be so very proud, James.

I have been swayed away from Bryston in the past but that will never happen again.

Glad to see Bryston place the mid-range driver in an enclosure to prevent any distortion caused by the back-pressure from the the woofers.   However, I suspect that some of that back-pressure will be radiated back through the woofer diaphragms.

I would hardly call that an enclosure... It's just plastic. You can see how it wobbles when he pulls it out.
The only thing this prevents is the midrange speakers being blown out when some serious bass occurs, but that's about it.
