Ok, took delivery of the 7b sst2 .In a word, the B&W 800 Diamonds are simply stunning with the bryston bp26 and 7b sst2 mono blocks. The 4b sst was good with the 800 diamonds but the 7b sst2 are truly something very very special.I really only expected a small difference in the bottom end. The difference was of course substantial in the lower registers( more than even I expected) .When the bass is so well controlled it just seems to improve everything else across the spectrum.I simply wasn't prepared for such improvements in the mid and upper registers.The combination has produced some of the best midrange I have heard.When it comes to high frequency reproduction it is definitely the best I have ever heard from any system,period( imo) .

Awesome. You have quite a system there. I'd love to hear it!

A Pair of 28B-SST sq. I got these installed last night about 10 pm. I coundn't stop spinning music until 8 am. These amps are amazing. I now have 8 Bryston amps with with a total of 14 channels. You can never have too much Bryston power!!!

LFD Zero Mk III LE - will be shipped to me Monday to see how it gels with my Harbeth Compact 7ES3s. We shall see...

Meridian 861 v6 processor. The Meridian will feed the Bryston 28B's and the 28B's will feed Martin Logan CLX's. Yummy.

Hi Al,

This black box is a pre amplifier. One of the best money can buy. Sovereign is a German company lead by a millionair who does not care about making profit, he just wants to create something perfect and share it with the world. Like with Bryston equipment everything is hand build and tested thoroughly.

1 x phono input, 7 x line input, 2 rec out (really don't have a clue why these are on it, the last recording device I owned was my VCR which is gone since a decade ago), 2 line out.

Warranty is not given, if there ever is a problem with it in whatever way it simply will be fixed.
