All research I have done it is untouchable at that price. Mine arrived this week, installed today.

^ and that right there is all the review I really needed. The business I am in is always “trust but verify” and sometimes carries over into my personal life.

MEMO: To All Bryston Customers
SUBJECT: Bryston BCD-3 CD Player – Customer Feedback

November 2020

Hi James,

I send great opinion from happy customer. He knows what he say about piano because he has been studying piano at University of Music.

Robert Fijałkowski , MJ AUDIO LAB - Poland




"This player is a dream come true for me! I want to hug you and the whole team of Bryston engineers - for the fact that this player was produced and that it sounds the way it does and that I can purchase it.

This device communicates the MUSIC and the emotions associated with it.

I could not ask for anything more. I had high expectations and they came true. A big thank you from me!

From this dat forward, we are changing the Bryston slogan: Bryston is no longer an amplifier specialist; Bryston is a sophisticated music specialist! - This is what Bryston devices sound like, including the BCD-3, which is not an amplifier! I can attest to the performance because I have already checked it with my own ears. And I know I am right: the BCD-3 player is certainly one of the best players in the world, in an absolute sense.

To say that, I don't need any comparison with other players. I just hear very well; and I know how the different instruments actually sound: and Bryston transmits it. I started with Chopin's Nocturne in C minor (Op. 48) in the recording of my beloved Garrick Ohlsson (Arabesque); and the first two minutes of this recording made me realise what a fantastic player this is.

If the piano sounds like Ohlsson's fingers, the first thing that comes to mind is "yes, no doubt, he's playing the Bosendorfer!" - it cannot be a greater compliment if the device is so accurate in terms of timbre that it differentiates the brand of the piano the artist playing. It calmed me down immediately, because I was sure that since the BCD-3 reproduces the piano sound so phenomenally, other instruments will also sound as they should ... In addition, this sound is already great even when the player is still completely " raw "unplayed ...!" - unbelievable!

To sum up: I bet everything on this player and company. Bryston did not disappoint me. More: they generously endowed me! - And I am grateful to them for that."
