Best AMP for Von Schweikert VR-1's ? Clear Please, not coloured.
I am looking to buy a used amplifier preferably with a volume control
or a very clean integrated. I can deal if there is no volume control. I would like to know what is recommended. This is for a recording studio. All over the board in music, so just clear as can be. Maybe class A, Thank you, Chris |

The Bryston amplifiers fit the bill there. Very clean, powerful and
reliable. The 3B or a pair of 2B amps is a very good investment. The 2B would be very nice as the pro units have level controls on the front and by using a pair, you can bi-amp and get the optimum bass level set for your room. I would still recommend the use of a preamp to control the master level, but you could use a mixing board there in a pinch. -Bill www.uptownaudio.com Roanoke VA (540) 343-1250 "Christian Serig" wrote in message ...

I bought them right after the 20-year warranty was introduced. I also own another 10 amplifier products and quite frankly the Brystons have been the least reliable amplifiers I've yet owned. Each of the 4B-NRBs has been back for service at least once. And one of the 2Bs has now developed a scratchy level control. And the 'warranty" is not free. At one time I had to send both the 4Bs back at the same time (at my own expense) but because I hadn't saved BOTH shipping cartons I used another box from another amplifier I owned. Bryston fixed both amplifiers, threw away carton I shipped one amplifier in and then charged me $30 for a new carton. These are good amplifiers, sound exactly like the other 10 amps I own and exactly like an ADCOM car audio amplifier, but they aren't among the most reliable amplifiers I've owned. |

They are nearfields? Maybe you need to do some researching. I am looking for more esoteric brands not so much Bryston since that is one of the industry standards up there with Hafler. What are the highest quality integrateds from over 10 years ago? Bryston would still be on that list. No need to spend outrageous sums to amplify those speakers. |

Lots of bang for the buck, very well built. They have amps with more power than most people will ever need or use, up to 3500 WPC. |

Maybe class A, Thank you, Chris The Bryston's go for around $2000.00 U.S. the QSC Powerlight PLX3402 is around $1200.00 U.S. for 700WPC @8 ohms vs. the 200 WPC for the 4B. |
