While I can't speak to the 7B amps I did try a Reference Line passive with my 4B-ST and while I found the sound to be clean I thought my amp was best served by an active preamp. Seemed to my ears to work better with the BP-25 and even better with the Rogue 66 but thats another issue (tubes vs SS)...
Passive pre with Bryston 7B ST??
I am wondering whether the Bryston monoblocks are suitable for passive attenuators/pre while the Bryston preamps (are said) to be the weak link of this pre/power combo. As the Brystons are pretty well known I'd gues that someone would have tried it with a passive pre (FT Audio LW1 for example)
The Brystons have a high sensitivity (0,8 volt) and a high input impendance. My cd-player (Musical Fidelity Nuvista 3D) has a low impendance 2 volt output according to the red book standard.
Any comments?
