| Rogue Pharoah II I am using a Bryston 3B SST2 with Bryston PB26 preamp and my 1.7i's sound Fantastic. Bryston amps have had a reputation for being a great match with Maggies. | |
| Which device makes for a better digital music source? Computer or streamer? Using a Cambridge Audio CXN version 1. Sound is as good or better than my NAD CD player. I can connect my PC (HP laptop) to the CXN through a USB cable but I cannot tell the difference between that and streaming directly from the CXN. | |
| Streamer options Try Cambridge Audio CXN V2. I have a CXN V1. It's everything you need in a steamer, almost any input and output combination available. Sound is amazing. | |
| Preventive maintenance or wait till it breaks? Buy Bryston, 20 year warenty that you raley even need to | |

| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? Thanks to all of you for your comments and recommendations. I will add that the 3B SST² has plenty of power for the Magnepan .7's. I have brought the volume up to clipping on the amp and I am not detecting any distortion that is concerning at al... | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? So let me ask these questions: I listen to music at low volume levels most of the time. As a reference when I say low, the volume control on the BP26 is at 9:00 or less.Is it only a matter of not being able to listen to music at a loud level?Or w... | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? I did want to add that I am not considering buying the speakers used. I want to get New to be able to go through the break in period with the Magnepan's. It has been a great experience with the .7's, and one I look forward to. I also really wan... | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? Wow, great to hear that you think the 3B SST² will be enough for the 3.7i's. I was really just looking to go to the 3.7's and the 20.7s are a bit out of my price range at this time in my life. Definitely a future upgrade possibility though. My ... | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? Thanks for the responses. My plan is to take the Bryston into the dealer to demo it with the 3.7s. The dealer believes the Bryston has enough power for the maggies but he is more than happy to let me demo the amp there. | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? Yes taking the 3B SST2 to a dealer is definetly an option and what I will try to do. Thanks for the input.GK | |
| Do you listen to equipment or music. Now that 90% of my listening is from streaming on Tidal, I find myself listening to only part of a particular track, then move on to the next one. When I was spinning vinyl, I would listen to at least one side of an album, then with CDs I would li... | |
| BUY Bryston!!!!! I broke, one of the single ended RCA connectors on my 3BSST² amp. I sent it to Bryston, to see what they would say, not stating that I had broken it. Bryston called to state they would repair it at cost of parts only, no labor, again I broke it,... | |

| Any good reasons to use transistor phono stage and line level preamp instead of tube ? yogiboy, good article, thanks for the link. I especially liked this passage:The problem, Hansen believes, is that people are too fixated on the gear and not enough on the experience the gear is supposed to provide. “Don’t be thinking about how th... |
