Mods to 4NRB still available?
« on: 22 Sep 2009, 09:49 pm »
I have a line on a used 4NRB. Although the 4BSTs used show up fairly often in my (ballpark) price range, I wondered if I can still get the 4NRB modded/updated by Bryston for a reasonable amount of money.  If so, what kind of $$ are we looking at? Thanks much!

Okay, thanks. Anywhere to go with the ST series? Again, I appreciate your help.

Deutsch: Is there an update program to convert an earlier version of an amplifier into an ST Series?

Chris Russell: We can do it on most of the NRB series. It's not inexpensive?about $500?but it can be done. Also, the 7B, for reasons of physical construction, is almost impossible to upgrade from the NRB series. The 3B and the 4B can be done.

Hi

That was a question and answer about 15 plus years ago and we did try for a while but it soon became obvious that it was not cost effective.
