RELIABILITY & SUPPORT

BUILT TO LAST

The techniques and custom materials that Bryston brings to bear every day in the construction of audio equipment are more typically found in industrial plants building military and aerospace electronics. Our traditional adherence to proprietary parts, sophisticated construction techniques, and in-depth testing prevents the unit-to-unit variability typical of mass produced product and assures that your amplifier will perform for many years without concern.

HAND ASSEMBLED WITH CARE:

All audio products we make are hand assembled and individually tested by a dedicated team of Bryston employees in our own North American manufacturing facility.

UNIQUE BURN-IN PROCEDURE

Each and every Bryston audio product undergoes an extensive quality control “burn-in” procedure. Following a complete operational checkout, every amplifier is placed on

atest-bench and run for 100 hours at full output (one-hour on/one-hour off for additional thermal stress), with a high

frequency square-wave input and a capacitive load. This extremely rigorous burn-in quickly “matures” components and weeds out any potential premature failures. The result is reliable trouble-free performance for many years.

EASY SYSTEM UPGRADES

We’ve designed the SST Series to take into account that systems change. There’s a full range of channel and power options, several amplifiers may be operated in bridged mono mode, and the 9B SST may be ordered with as few as 3 channels, and later expanded up to 5 channels.

ON-LINE CUSTOMER SUPPORT

The Bryston website allows for downloading of technical bulletins, product addenda, and complete user manuals.

OUR WARRANTY

Our commitment to build-quality and quality assurance is why every product we manufacture features an unlimited, transferable warranty, a warranty that remains unequaled by any other audio manufacturer in the world.

Input flexibility: XLR or 1/4” phone jack for balanced signals and RCA jack for single-ended source; input gain is selectable.
