Any word on when beaded faceplates will be available for all the other gear?

Hi

We start next week on the preamps.

How noticeable is the finish difference in person? 

What would be the cost associated with updating a BP26 and MPS2 with new faceplates and knobs?

Thanks

It's pretty subtle - the finish is bead blasted giving it a tectured feel

So more of a tactile difference and not worth worrying over retrofitting any existing gear.  Good to know. :thumb:

I'd say that if you have the new Cubed amps you might consider upgrading your other component's faceplates to match, otherwise I don't see the need.

That would be great, a reduction of $8205!  ;)

So should that have read "each", equating to a 14.5% or $2,790/pair increase, or is "pair" correct but there's a typo in the price and should have read $20,995/pair, equating to a 9.4% or $1795/pair increase?

Is that the new direct pricing including shipping to US lower 48?

You are going to sell a ton of these.

If the pair of 28's was that price Bryston wouldn't be able to keep up with demand. They would have to halt production on all other models I would think. The 7's would essentially be pointless :)

James,

Wondering if there is any progress on upgrade strategies/pricing to the new Cubed series?

Thanks!

Hi

No sorry - the certification and safety people will not let us make changes to existing products unless we re-certify which is not cost effective.

James,

Sorry i was not more specific in my query on updating to the Cubed series. I know you said in previous posts the larger series would have to be re-certified, so they were a no go. Is the same now true for the 4B model?

Thanks again!
