Bryston BI200 Rave
The Bryston Bi-200 integrated amp arrived late yesterday. Plugged in and playing! I cannot begin to tell you how large the grin is on my face. This has replaced a very capable 50-watt per side amp. The difference in terms of driving my speakers is staggering, especially at lower volume. It’s like the house has come to life for the very first time! I have been covering the industry for 25 years and this is the first amp that has generated such an immediate emotional experience in me!

It is built to a…
McIntosh Integrated Amps (& One Receiver)
McIntosh doesn’t allow us to post prices. This doesn’t make any sense, but that’s their edict. Just Google a review of a given product to find its price. With so many customers buying the Bluesound Node ($600) from us these days as their streaming source that supports CD and MQA level sound through Tidal, integrated amps make great sense to interface to…
