Point taken.
From now on I will refrain from commenting on the BDP, as it is not a device for me.
Shame.

Bring over your bcd and we will check it out. I haven't heard a bcd in this system for awhile. The bdp seems smoother than the bcd and just gets moves along in an effortless way. The bcd has to work at it. I have given up on cd....don't think i will ever play another one.

I no longer have the BCD-1, maybe I'll bring my Sony NS9100ES and see if the BDP-1/BDA-1 betters the Sony/BDA-1 combo. Looking forward to hearing your system again.

After you hear my upgraded MC system, you'll be kicking your 2 channel rig to the curb. :P

Na - we do it the right way :thumb:

That is the only way to do it  :thumb:
The pecking order of connections is audible, nothing too theoretical about it.

Well, if you like performance of Bryston gear than there’s got to be something in all of that theory, would you not agree?  :D
And speaking of cabling, more than one “theorist” states that balanced connections (when implemented correctly of course), are far less cable dependent than single ended. I bought into this theory as well and it does have validation in what I hear.

I agree that there is a consistency in xlr that bumps up the performance. Rca you have to rummage through the lot but the good ones are pretty juicy and seem to give better prat than any xlr i can find.

Sometimes it is not about 'sales' it's about what gives the best performance. Fortunately for me I own the company so I can do it my way :thumb:
