And let's not forget Whipping Post and Southbound! I was contacted by Bryston and I think they are leaning towards the 4B3 first (typically that is PLENTY of power) but have asked the right questions:
1. How loud do you listen?
2. What is your room size
3. Do you listen to "The Brothers"
I'll let ya know if I hear back... Got a email at like 9pm last nite. That's pretty cool customer service.
Hey Ronin
That's right! Can't forget about all the Brothers' tunes - and all of their related endeavors - Derek Trucks, Chuck Leavell, Gov't Mule, etc, etc. Love it all.
To get the most out of your gorgeous setup from an amplification perspective, I think, would be mono blocks. And the 7B3's would be the cat's ass. For me, the advantage over the 4B3 would be improved linearity and provide all the headroom you would need - to get the absolute best out of your system. Providing the budget is there, of course
If interested, check out of a few perspectives from PS Audio's lead man Paul McGowan - from just down the road from you!
