best preamp for bryston 14 b st, or 7 b sst?


I recently bought a pair of PMC MB1 speakers, and run them with a Plinius 8200 mk2. I like the sound of that, but definitely need more power.I am planning to get a Bryston 14 B ST or SST amp, or maybe a couple of 7 B SSTs. I am considering mating a Plinius M 16 or CD-LAD with it, but am not sure if that would be a good match, sonically and also electrically. The Bryston seems to need a lot of Voltage to get really going. Maybe the Bryston BP 25 might be better, but I have heard that this might be too bright a combination... What would you suggest?

In my opinion "brightness" was a problem with pre-ST Bryston products, not with the ST and SST series. If you're happy to use a 14B or 7B SST monos for power, I believe you will be most satisfied with a BP-25 for pre.
