Bryston BP-17 Stereo Preamplifier

Description

BP-17³

The Bryston BP-17 Cubed preamplifier is the first component from Bryston to use the patented low-distortion Salomie circuit at both the input and output stage.

This new technology is remarkable in its ability to render even the tiniest, most miniscule details with breathtaking clarity and lifelike scale.

As a fully featured preamp, the BP-17 Cubed is the centrepiece of your stereo. Balanced and single ended analog inputs can be used with virtually any source component.

When matched with a comparable-quality power amplifier and speakers, the Bryston BP-17 creates a significant audio system which is hard to beat.

High resolution DAC and moving magnet (MM) phono stage are also available as optional extras.
