Questions about Bryston 7B-ST


Hello Guys,

I have just bought a pair of 7B-ST,second hand. I have a few questions in my mind.

1- Amps sometimes produce a weird "zip zip zip" sound when shutting down only on parallel mode. It is not so loud but embrassing. It sounds like an exotic bird. :)

2- Back side and front side transistors are cooler then the middle transistor blocks.

3- It is written 6B on the outrigger boards of all channels.

Are these things normal?

Speakers; B&W M802 S3

Thank you

Best regards

Ozan

Why do you shut it down?

Too bad you are so far and not in Canada like me because Bryston's guarantee is pretty much bulletproof and their service top-notch. Mine is on 24/7, but we do have decent electrical power in Quebec. It is impossible to know from what you indicate how big a difference in temperature there is between transistors, but I would not worry about it. Is there an authorized distributor in your area or at least somewhere in Europe? I would not worry if it works it works. When and if it stops, I would try to get the amps to an authorized repair centre. Good luck.
