I have a BHK 250 and I too have wondered what it would sound like with Maggie 1.7i's. Unless someone has actual experience with this combination, opinions on how this amp sounds with one speaker don't necessarily correlate with other speakers. I've no experience with Bryston. In my system, I don't find the BHK amp to be "warm" at all and would characterize it as neutral. I had to do a bit of tweaking with different power cords, tubes, and interconnects to get it's tonality to suit me. Once I did, I love it and find it competitive with equipment at a much higher price point. Don't feel like you have to rush to jump on the amp for $4,800. PS Audio equipment is available at a discount from more than one retailer.
Who Has A BHK 250 & How Do You Like It?
I’m considering pulling the trigger on one of these. A dealer has offered me a new one at $4800 (normal price is $7500). I’ll be feeding it directly from my PS Directstream DAC then from the amp into Magnepan 1.7i. Was considering a used Bryston 4B3 at $4000 but it seems from what I’ve read that the BHK 250 is a better sounding amp.
