Plinius SA301 Or Bryston 4bsst2?

They also suggest using Silnote inter connects and speaker wire. The amps are wired with silnote.

The Plinius SB-301 is not switchable between Class A and Class AB the same way the SA-103 is.

Also not sure what basis there is to say that Bryston amps are more reliable than Plinus. They may carry a longer warranty, but there are any number of Plinius owners here using older models with no complaints at all about them.

I said "maybe" Bryston is more reliable. Just a wild guess due to my experience with the brand. I suppose Bryston kicks out their fair share of duds just like any manufacturer. Matter of fact, there's a you tube video of a very disappointed now ex-Bryston customer. I admit, I'm not familiar at all with using or even auditioning a Plinius unit. I hope this clears things up!

Plinius SB301 is in a different league from bryston 4bsst2.
It will be better for you to compare Plinius SB301 with bryston 14bsst2. I would still vote plinius for its midrange/bass quality. In addition reliability of plinius is outstanding. I wish I could afford their plinius Ref SA amplifier.

That's what I figured. The 4BSST or SST2 is not the most transparent or dynamic amp out there.

Ok, cool, sounds good regarding the reliability. Why, what is the price of the Ref SA?
