Is this cable that comes along with the passport good enough? The cable looks like very flimsy.

Any other brand/model can you recommend per your experience?

Hi

The cable from the Passport drive to the USB input will not affect performance.

Hi James,

I'm still VERY much enjoying this amazing player & it's companion, the BDA-1.

I never thought I would be listening to digital music as much/more than I listen to analogue!

Cheers

Brad

Hi,

I just wanted to say that of all the components I’ve owned, switching to Bryston (a BDA-1 and a B60R) was one of the best audio decisions I’ve made.

A long time ago a friend raved about his 4B, but it took me awhile to try everything; I’ve had everything including Classe, McIntosh, Musical Fidelity, PS Audio, Pioneer Elite, niche tube gear, consumer gear, and even classics like Fisher. He was right; once I got the Bryston’s with some decent cabling my search was over…except for eventually trading up to the new B135, I suppose.

I guess my friend was right all along!

Thanks!

Guys,

Pls help me how to connect the mpad to the bryston. This is how I did it but wont work.

Name- BDP1
Server - bryston-bdp-1.local
Password-bryston

Is there any other thing that a dummy like me should do? Or do I miss any update to perform it correctly.

I was able to use the ipad with the max or mini but there are some quirks. No album art of all the 10 cds i ripped last night using dbpoweramp. It shows per song and not by artist when my setup is per artist.

Hi

Do not use a Password and try the IP address on the BDP-1 if bryston-bdp-1.local does not work.

Also try MAX2

One thing that I have observed with the mpad is that it does not show all the albums downloaded. I have about 6-8 albums that are not showing out of 25. Is this a bug in the mpad software? Is there a runaround to show all the albums. Using the mpad is pain and glory.
