I just recently purchased a Bryston amp and I'm considering PC for it. My budget is limited so nothing very expensive. I already have a TG Audio SLVR on my CDP with good effect but want to know what else is there.
So far Michael Wolff gain cord is one contender along with TG Audio. What other cables would you guys suggest.
Thanks guys for the responses. When the time comes for my next purchase I'll be looking into the above mention cables or a Power Conditioner(BPT 3.5 Sig or ExactPower).
It is my understanding that Bryston doesn't recommend aftermarket PC's...I had a B60...tried a PS labs mini PC and didn't notice much if anything...when I borrowed an "ultimate outlet"...I noticed that the power conditioning (with the stock powercord) had a greater effect than the powercord upgrade without the "ultimate outlet" there as much of a perceptable difference using either PC with or without the conditioning.
Which line conditioner should you use?...I have no idea as I'm completely uneducated with regards to them...perhaps some more experienced posters can recommend one as an alternative to a cable upgrade.
I have Bryston 4B-ST and 5B-ST amps, and upgraded both of their power cords. If there was any difference in the resulting sound quality, it was way too subtle for my ears. I'd follow Bryston's advice (their standard power cords are fine) and spend your money on something else.
Some equipment will benefit from aftermarket powercords. I've owned many Bryston amps over the years, and I have not found any power cords that improved the sound of the Bryston amps. I have, however, found a couple that made the Brystons sound worse.
So, I stick with stock power cords on my Brystons.
