Hi Folks,

Just received a very expansive and detailed review from Occasional Magazine on the Bryston 135 Cubed Integrated amplifier.

Please see attached PDF.

Its 4 pages so for those that need to cut to the chase here is the conclusion.

Send me an email if you want the PDF - jamestanner@bryston.com


Conclusion:

I didn’t answer the question I just proposed. What about Bob? I think Bob was enamored with his four large Bryston monoblocks pumping out blood and fire through his big JBLs. He’d take one look at the relatively petite B135³ and say the he needed more to truly rawk. Bob’s opinions would probably fold under strict blind tests, however. It’s strange to see such a compact piece of gear deliver such a powerful sound, one undeterred by inefficient speakers with challenging impedances. It’s fun to have something so reasonably priced and sized that can alarm your neighbors, but that’s not what I want or need from an integrated. I want detail and dynamics, but I also want balance and finesse and clarity.
