Model T Speakers
 
I ordered a pair of Bryston Model T Speakers in Rosewood today. Not quite sure where I will showcase them yet. :scratch2:

Be careful Ivan - they weigh 108 pounds EACH.

Roger that! :ok:

Also if you need help with the OutRiggers (they can be confusing) give me a call.

Will do, I probably won't get to them till early next week.

A.Wayne 06-11-2013 09:05 PM

Hello Ivan,

Do you have a Bryston only room , or are you going to run them on the Accuphase ...

Regards,

Regards,

I do have an all Bryston rig, but I'm using the SF Futura's there and they sound fabulous.

I intend to use the Model T's with my Accuphase gear. I'll probably get them opened over the weekend. Of course I'll post pics. :thumbsup:

Masterlu 06-17-2013 11:41 AM

A bit short handed on labor till Wednesday, then I'll unbox them. :)

AudioNut 06-17-2013 02:55 PM

I'm really glad that you ordered in some Model T Speakers.

I really wasn't aware that many Model T's even had radios. . . . .

Julian... Don't ever stop being you! ;)

Masterlu 06-23-2013 08:46 PM

I finally moved my new Model T's upstairs to their new location. These are seriously heavy speakers; James wasn't kidding.

Will unbox them in the morning. ;)

mgard 06-23-2013 11:04 PM

It would be interesting to compair Model T's to the Aerial Acoustics 7T. I bet the Model T's look beautiful in rosewood. Can't wait to see your pictures and read your impressions Ivan.

Hi Ivan

Yes the cabinet has a very thick baffle and tons of bracing as well as the magnet sizes on the drivers are substantial.

I was thinking maybe a 'micro t' should be our next project :D

Here are the pics of the Bryston Model T speakers in Rosewood. They look fantastic, and the grille attachment via magnets is ingenious! :thumbsup:

Can't wait to wire them up, and play them!

The Bryston speakers look very nice!

Musicman 06-24-2013 09:13 PM

Really nice in rosewood. I'm sure you will enjoy how good they sound.

Masterlu 06-24-2013 09:16 PM

Musicman... Thanks & Welcome! :wave:

mgard 06-24-2013 09:26 PM

Wow, that was worth the wait! The rosewood looks absolutely beautiful. :yes: Ivan your photographs are excellent. I can smell that aroma of new speaker smell all the way up here in Michigan. :D
Next the sound, but we will not rush you as these things take time like fine wine. Well maybe not that long....:D

I'll cable them up in the next few days; I have Cape Cod Demo's going now, so I've been pretty busy! :)

Hibbing 06-25-2013 07:05 AM

Just bought the Model T and they're UNBELIEVABLY good!

Masterlu 06-25-2013 10:17 AM

Hibbing... Welcome! :wave:

RagaMusic 06-25-2013 10:57 AM

Heard the passive Model T's with Aragon amplification and was VERY impressed. Bass is solid and detailed. Can't imagine what the active version will be like.

Wonder if we'll see a response from Paul Barton now that his flagship Synchrony One has been eclipsed?

Masterlu 06-26-2013 07:04 PM

I played my new Model T's today for the first time. What a game changer, they sound simply Amazing!

Congrad's James on yet another Grand Slam for Bryston in the audio world! :thumbsup:

Very cool! I'd love to hear them sometime - and when I decide to make a speaker upgrade, these will definitely be on the list to audition! :music:

Jeff... These speakers perform so far beyond their price point, it makes you think Bryston priced them wrong. :yes:

And what is the SRP. They look great and compliment the vintage jBL's

Couldn't agree more that these are "game changers" they outperform some much more expensive speakers I have owned in the past. Personally I have never heard this level of reproduction anywhere near this price.
Truly game changers.

jdandy 06-27-2013 09:00 PM

Ivan.......The Bryston Model T speaker in rosewood looks gorgeous. The veneer up-charge over base price certainly looks like it is well worth it. That is a great looking speaker. If I had one more room I might be tempted to gives the Model T a whirl.

Dan... These speakers can dish out the music in spades! :yes:

Bryson Model T update
 
I really must comment further on the Model T's

We have all seen the positive reviews these speakers have been getting; in fact it's so much, you may start taking it with a grain of salt.

Let me tell you, I have been playing mine since early this morning. First, I have done no speaker setup whatsoever I just flanked my JBL's with them. Second I still haven't put the Outrigger stands on them, which will further improve their sound even more.

Guys, I kid you not; these speakers "Must be Heard" to be believed. :yes:

They just do everything right, the bottom end is crazy deep. The mids, and highs are terrific; but even more amazing is the sound stage these are throwing.

Now I know I'm driving these with all Accuphase gear, but these are simply amazing. I can easily put these up against speakers costing $15-$20k

Another fantastic plus is they have a remarkable small footprint, and are very WAF friendly. What are you waiting for; get out and audition a pair!

James... Truly Outstanding Work! :thumbsup:

Hibbing 06-29-2013 04:45 PM

I have been saying you need to spend 3 to 4 times their $6500 price tag to get anywhere close to the level of the Model T and that doesn't guarantee they can do EVERYTHING the way the Bryston manage to.

Masterlu 07-02-2013 08:43 PM

I'm so pleased... Today I ordered the matching TC-1 center channel speaker.
