Hi Folks,

Received this from a customer who purchased a complete Bryston surround speaker system:

•   Model T Signatures - Front left/right
•   Model TC-1 Center
•   Model T’s Surrounds,
•   Model T Subs x 2


Hi James,

I spent a few hours listening to CDs with the Model T Signatures last night. Did not power on the subs or other speakers. I can't believe how good these sound right out of the box. Absolutely amazing! You have blown the doors off of the (EDIT) which I have really adored.

I am now a Bryston junkie!

UPDATE:
My neighbor helped me with the center setup and also helped me unpack the rear speakers. So I finally got to fire up 5.1. Without taking the time to tune with a sound meter, I put in a Blu-Ray and roughly tuned levels by ear. The surround is AWESOME. I'm hearing things I never heard before and the usual stuff is certainly sounding better. Now I need to have dinner, calm down, and really tune it.

I tuned the system with a sound meter after I sent you the above email and had dinner. Oh, my goodness! I was up to 2am listening/watching. It sounds really fantastic James. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Best,
Marc

Yes I think people are surprised sometimes how much of a difference a quality speaker can make in their listening pleasure :thumb:

I was actually referring to how much Bryston gear in the system.  :thumb:. But ok.

Oh sorry - yes he has become a Bryston convert - he heard the system I had set up in Vegas and was mightily impressed  :thumb:

Hi Folks,

Got this from one of our dealers :thumb:



Hi James,

Two things.

First: I have sold another pair of Middle T but I'm just waiting on confirmation from the girlfriend as to which finish.

Second: I'm also going to buy a pair! In light cherry I think... The Middle Ts are ruining me for other speakers. The price is right, they seem to be compatible with all amps and the full range sound is addictive!!!

Still waiting (patiently  :roll:) for a pair of Mini A's that I have on order from Whitby Audio. Has anyone had a chance to hear them yet?

Hi Gordon - just me - have a pair in my office - first of their kind.

What is the rest of the system you are using with them?

Mac based running Audirvana into a Bel Canto pre/DAC (just waiting for the pending Bryston all in one!) into an Exposure dual mono power amp (80 per channel). Have been using B&W floorstanders, Dynaudio and Castle stand mounts. I really do like the stand mount set up best and have used REL and Dynaudio subs. Can't wait to see how the Mini A's work out!

Sorry, meant to show as a quote in response to James re the Mini A's.

Hi Folks,

Got this today from a very experienced high end dealer about the Bryston Model T Speakers.


From: AUDIO EXCELLENCE
Sent: March-11-14 8:58 AM
To: James Tanner
Subject: Re: Bryston Model T’s

Hi James,
 
The Bryston Model T speakers sound quite amazing. Very impressive for your first try. One of my big complaints about high end speakers is that they don't have full range bass for prices even up to $15,000. In our room with 30' ceilings (false acoustic tiles at 9'), the speakers easily fill the room. Center image is very sharp, soundstage is wide. Clarity is easily as good as your competition. Certainly a superb speaker.
 
I think you have a winner in this speaker
 
Congrats, I mean it!
 
Best wishes,
Adrian

James,

Given how good the bass on the middle T is, what frequency do you set the crossover to the sub?  Do you really need the sub or do you use them just to show off?

Hi James,

Do you have any online documentation on the crossover that comes with the active T's?

I'd like to know whether it's useful/possible to buy/use it with the signature version having a future upgrade in mind. And whether it goes alongside or replaces the use if my 10bsub crossover .

Cheers
Marius

Hi Marius,

The Model T Active crossover I only have in prototype form at this point as I am playing around with different DAC's.  The crossover will be dedicated to the Model T's as we are doing some very unique things in the crossover/driver design on the T's. 

I recommend that customers buy the Model T Signatures now if they are thinking of upgrading to an Active system sometime in the future.

Hi James

Thanks
Understood, but I was thinking of the option to order the signatures with the active crossover, and only upgrading the amps in the future ...

Or isn't that possible? Don't mind to wait a bit longer for the prototype to become the product ;-)

Yes the Active will be a long way out at this point as we are up to our ears in other projects.

Bump this question for James.

Sorry I missed this question:

Yes the first picture was the Middle T's with the crossover as I was using the subs with the Mini A's and the Mini T's in that room.  Now that I have had time with the Middle T's the Subs have been removed.
