Interesting stuff, James.
As someone who has owned Bryston gear for about 30 years,(In one form or another.),It's great to see another Canadian company being saved from the scrap heap.
It's sad that most of these high-end audio companies have decided to manufacture in Asia. I realize they do it as a cost-cutting measure but I have found that for the most part the quality is not there.As they say-you get what you pay for..
I personally own a Magnum Dynalab Etude FM tuner, which I sent back to them about a year or so ago to have them rebuild it as it was about 30 years old at the time . Now works as good as new and should function for many more years. FM radio has gotten a bad rap over the years for terrible sound but if you have a good tuner,(Like my Etude is), you can really pull in some quality signals.There's still a lot of free information and music on the radio today.
