PS Audio PMG Signature Preamp or BHK Signature Preamp or Bryston BP-19


I currently have the BHK preamp and am looking to upgrade.  Can anyone who has actually heard these preamps please give your opinions/comparisons?

I’d like to thank everyone for their input and taking the time to share your thoughts on these preamps.  I sent my BHK back to PS Audio last week to have some low-level noise taken care of.  I saw on their website last night that they were allowing a $3000.00 credit towards the PMG and also a new, 60 day trial period, so I broke out the plastic and bought one.  They will hold onto my BHK in case I return the PMG.  I won’t have to pay for the out of warranty repair fee either if I keep the PMG.  It should arrive Wednesday.  Audio Advisor also offers a free return policy, so I may grab a BP-19 to compare with.  As vandy357 mentioned here, I hope it’s an improvement worth $6000.  We shall see.

BTW, if anyone is wondering, my system consists of the PS Audio Airlens, Stellar Gold DAC (which I prefer to my original Directstream DAC), BHK 250, two REL T/7X subs and Magnepan 3.7x speakers.  

You will not be disappointed with the PMG Signature.  It's one of the most open and fastest preamps I've heard.  It's excellent.

@stevehardy1 congrats on the PMG, I am sure you will love the sound, just remember to give it some time to breath before you make any judgement on the sound.  Can't to hear what you think.
