I know I am on a Bryston forum, and am loading myself in the breech LOL.
But I wonder if anyone has owned both the 4B SST2 and the McCormack DNA-500 ? I am wondering what kind of sonic differences a person can expect between the two of these amplifiers ?
Thanks
I have compared 4B SST to DNA-250 in my system.
These two amplifiers were as much apart as I have ever heard.
DNA-250 was very colored, kind of syrupy and slow is what comes to mind, not unlike some tube amplifier, even more exaggerated in that direction. My impressions were matched by 2 other pairs of ears.
DNA-250 went back, I kept 4B SST for a while then changed to 7B SST. 7B SST were noticeably better than 4B SST, and were, beside some Howland and Halcro amps, the best I have heard.
Have heard 7B SST2 with my former speakers, but not in my system.
