Bryston understands the importance of implementing exceptionally high-quality parts in life-saving medical equipment, and the company now applies that philosophy to creating cost-no-object audio components. Bryston products are hand made in the Canadian facility, with no outsourcing and no shortcuts. New products are not introduced annually to artificially improve the lineup and drive sales; rather, Bryston introduces new models when they contain real advancements–which is what Bryston promises with its new Cubed amplifier line, consisting of the 28B , 14B , 7B , 4B , 3B , and 2.5B .

Exceptional Value awards are presented to components whose sound quality is usually associated with products costing far more. The Bryston 4B3 stereo/mono amplifier has virtually faultless sound and with the added ability to drive just about any speaker with ease. The 4B3 may well be the best value today in a high-end, high-powered, solid-state amplifier.
