Bryston VS Musical Fidelity


Hi gang,

I'm looking for opinions on this. Has anyone compared
The Bryston 4BSST to the Musical Fidelity A5 power amp?

Tvad,
How would you compare the Bryston with the VAC Tube Amp.
Forget conventional wisdom and all the techno talk, just, how do they compare?
Which is better in your humble opinion, why, and so on.
My assessment, humbly is, that the Bryson sounds, although, I dislike this characterization, slow and lacking in fine detail.
Inasmuch as tubes are finely detailed though somethat flawed in the bass region, the Bryston sounds unrefined and slower than I would characterize as being accurate musically.
It is the proverbial workhorse versus the thorobred horse.
It lacks refinement and detail, but has good bass and other good qualities.

Hey Greg - Do you have a chance to go to any shop that has both of these, or alternately, two shops that have the same speakers. Where are you?
So far we've got bright, slow, neutral, lacking in detail and detailed.
May I suggest you start another thread - B&W CDM7SE - what amps are you using. Maybe some others have already been where you've been.
