New Bryston BDA-3

[James Tanner - Bryston]

Hi Folks,

It’s always a feather in your cap when a reviewer purchases the review sample after their assessment.

BUT when TWO reviewers purchase a unit its exceptionally rare !!!

SUBJECT: Bryston BDA-3 DAC Review – UHF

February 2017

Hi Folks – nice feedback from a review to appear shortly from UHF Magazine on our new BDA-3 DAC.



“Hi Folks,

In the midst of listening sessions with the new Bryston BDA3 DAC.

We began the sessions with the unit you see here, the Bryston BDA-3. We had reviewed the BDA-2 in an earlier issue of UHF, and we can say that the third incarnation of this converter is a mighty leap forward. As usual, we don't give “stars” or other numerical ratings to products we review, because that would take away the nuances we strive to add to our reviews.

Suffice it to say that this is a very good product.

Well, we should possibly add one more nuance: we liked the BDA-3 enough to have purchased one for our reference system. And, to add one more nuance, one of our panelists, Albert Simon, bought one as well.

We're continuing our sessions.”

I've had my bda3 for about 5 months now. I've had all sorts of fun rediscoving music with it and hearing things in recordings I didn't know existed (good and bad). Last night I listened to a 2 channel DSD copy of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. I'll admit I was a bit hazy eyed at that point of the evening, but wow. I've listened to that album hundreds of times, but never heard it like that. The bdp2/bda3 combo is worth every penny.

That is a phenomenal remastering by the late, great Doug Sax.

The BDA-3 is really good DAC! Have mine for almost one year now.
