I am getting Bryston 7B-SST in 2 days for my Revel Ultima Salons. I emailed James Tanner at Bryston about differences between 14B-ST, 14B-SST, and 7B-SST and he said they are sonically all the same.

However, I have read some online mag reviews stating a slight preference for the 7B-SST.

I have not heard the 7B-SST but I heard and liked the 14B-ST. I have also heard these speakers with the ML 436 and decided on the Bryston instead. I thought they sounded just as good and was half the price. I also went with the 7B-SST over the 14B-ST because of the greater flexiblity with placement.

I have Salons and used the 7B SST's but sold them since I caused them to clip ALL THE TIME. Great bass, but for LOUD listening, which I like, not enough juice. Sorry. Got the Krell FPB 600 C. More then enough juice. But I still like Levinson sound the best.

As a VMPS dealer I would hope you wouldn't be happy (well maybe you will) with anything less than the VMPS RM/x (2nd place HIGH END CES 2003)

It would love 900 clean watts to play with!

Ats - As previously stated, with a 14B-SST you could run just about anything. You didn't indicate a budget, but if I were in your position I would probably end up with a pair of Spendor SP-100s (if price was a factor).

I had some friends (who have since moved overseas) who were running a pair of SP-100s with a Bryston 4B-ST, ARC preamp, and a Wadia CDP and the combo was sensational.

Good luck!
