Speakers for Bryston

Mirage, Von Sweikart

We pair the Bryston in our showroom with Dynaudio with great results, especially the Confidence/Contour series. We are just receiving the new Focus series and are currently burning them in so can't report on this match, but I am confident it will be great, too.

Some of the small KEF's like the 1.5 can be had cheaply and have a smooth but forward sound which is ideal for listening at low levels, which is why I used them in a den situation over Dyna 42's.

As I recall both Magnepan and Reference 3A are voiced with Bryston.

Seriously I would not be concerned with just your speakers, but the 4BSST amp. Bryston is a cold, clinical, and grainy sound.

The reason for this is not because Bryston 'tells it like it is', but because Bryston engineers come from a pro audio backround and designed their amps with measurement theory rather than listening.

The new SST2 range of amps have supposedly resolved this problem and are much better, some say.
