Bryston - Sobert - 25-Jun-2015 Got an ok price on Bryston BDP-2 unit so going to test it against Air. I guess I surrendered to the whitenoise problem I been having at 192khz... I will be buying Audience Au24se aes/ebu as Bryston also recommend this output/input RE: Bryston - Sobert - 25-Jun-2015 Anyone else use Bryston? Looking forward to comparing it to Air... RE: Bryston - samurai7595 - 26-Jun-2015 I'm using the Bryston BDP-2 digital player and love it. I'm using the MPaD app on my iPad Mini and the MPoD app on my iPhone 6 Plus and both work flawlessly. I've exchanged some emails with James at Bryston and he highly recommends using the AES/EBU connection for the BDP-2. I came close to trading it in for an Aurender N100H but the fact that the Bryston BDP-2 works flawlessly with both my iPad and iPhone (extremely convenient for when my wife is using the iPad) and sounds amazing (read the reviews), I decided to keep my BDP-2 and get a high-quality AES/EBU digital cable instead. The Bryston BDP-2 digital player also received an A+ rating in the 2015 Stereophile Recommended Components listing: http://www.stereophile.com/content/2015-recommended-components-disc-players-transports-media-players BTW, I don't use Air so I never did the comparison (sorry). RE: Bryston - Sobert - 26-Jun-2015 I will be doing some testing this weekend And if you don't know, there is a new audio device card (upgrade) available Bryston - ledesc - 26-Jun-2015 Can the bdp stream qobuz, deezer elite.... ?

I use the BDP-1 version (the original one), through an AES/EBU (mainly) and USB, and absolutely love it! I updated the two fuses to the following kind, which very slightly improved the performance: Platinum Reference “More Than a Fuse” http://www.audio-horizons.com/pages/fuse.html RE: Bryston - miro - 27-Jun-2015 (26-Jun-2015, 13:36)Sobert Wrote: I will be doing some testing this weekend What is this upgrade exactly? RE: Bryston - Sobert - 27-Jun-2015 Tidal is in beta, no support yet for other streaming services. RE: Bryston - Sobert - 27-Jun-2015 New hardware. Aes/ebu and bnc cards are replaced with one card made for Bryston. First reports are good. My dealer has ordered so will report back when tested. RE: Bryston - Sobert - 27-Jun-2015 MEMO: To All Bryston Customers SUBJECT: Announcing Bryston Integrated Audio Device Card May, 2015 Hi Folks, We have been working on a Bryston proprietary “Integrated Audio Device” card with much improved specifications to replace the current two-piece ‘Soundcard’ and ‘SPDIF interface module’ (AES/BNC) utilized in our current BDP-2 Digital Player. I am happy to report that an all new integrated version of the BDP-2 audio card is now going into production and should be available in a few weeks from now. All BDP-2’s currently on order will be fitted with the new Bryston integrated audio card. BENEFITS: • No reliance on the quality level of third party products or having to modify said products • Improve the performance by hand selecting and testing all the components in house • Eliminates 3 connection points • Integrates the output module and the sound processing section into one circuit instead of two. • The Bryston audio device is directly powered by the high quality linear power supply rather than the motherboard. Any current BDP-2 owners may have their units upgraded if desired. James Tanner Bryston |
