BUY Bryston!!!!!
Elizabeth, there’s no doubt Bryston’s sound good and you may never need to try anything else but I think what Ozzy62 is saying is that their amplifiers and preamps have a common sonic signature that isn’t for everyone. As for what the reviewers sa...

VPI 40th Anniversary Table After Warranty Support Question
I have had several VPI tables over the years and have dealt with Harry and the late Sheila several times, both were always very helpful. I have no experience with the new VPI owner except knowing that he is the son of the founder. I hear some of t... 
BUY Bryston!!!!!
It’s great to hear all of these wonderful experiences and to be honest I’ve had several great experiences with them as well but not with their amplifiers, only with their digital products. I had a pair of 7B SST2’s where one amplifiers bias went o... 
What is the best way to tame a slightly bright speaker?
Room treatment for sure, power conditioners and cables will not tame that speaker, if they do they are affecting or colouring the signal which they all claim not to do. Your speakers are a bright speaker, I’m very familiar with them. You can spend...

Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
I spent close to $20k on a pair of brand name monoblocks, plugged them into my dedicated 20 amp outlets and they had a loud line level hum, hired electricians, changed out grounding rods etc to the tune of $3k in costs. Took all my other equipment... 
High End is Dead?
Russbutton, great perspective, and very true! Aligns with my thoughts too! 
High End is Dead?
Ghasley, you have 00’s of posts registered here, it is you that possibly needs some more sunshine, please leave others alone who are just posting their facts and realities.Also, you are incorrect about systems being cheaper today, a 1962 system fr... 
High End is Dead?
High end is not dead but it’s very sick. As president of a large company with a CPA background, my observation is that the dealer base has shrunk to an obsolete level, just look at the city you live in, how many dealers are left? Kids don’t spend ...
