Bryston CSERIES MP3 Player User Manual


 
Typical 5.1 Surround hook-up using
Bryston 9B SST C–Series Amplifier.
SOLID CONSTRUCTION
Bryston’s research has shown that separate power supplies
provide the best imaging, clarity, and dynamic range — all
attributes that are especially crucial given the emerging
and demanding high resolution digital sources. The power
supplies employ multiple filter capacitors per channel, rather
than single pairs of larger filter cans, allowing improved high
frequency response, and reducing overall losses in the supply.
In the 9B SST, and 6B SST models we carry the modular
concept further, making the channels removable.
SUPERIOR INGREDIENTS
We use only the finest components — such as 0.1% metal-
film resistors, polypropylene capacitors, custom-wound
toroidal transformers, and hand-matched transistors — to
reduce noise and distortion to the absolute minimum. Gold-
plated balanced or single-ended (RCA) input connectors are
standard as well as gold-plated 5-way loudspeaker binding
posts, to eliminate possible causes of distortion from
corrosion. As befits products intended for use on stage as
well as in the home, the SST chassis are extremely robust.
FLEXIBILITY & FEATURES
SST amplifiers offer feature flexibility. For example, all allow
a choice of input connection — balanced XLR-F, balanced
1/4” phone, or single-ended RCA jack — together with a
switch to select gain settings. A trigger input allows system-
wide on/off control. Overall, the SST Series itself facilitates
flexibility in putting together the total system through a
variety of channel and power output options.
THE RESULT
Although the description of circuit innovations can indicate
the research and commitment we bring to the design and
manufacturing of our products, it’s not the whole story. The
purpose of all this technology is to place you within the scene
of the movie, or to transport you to the actual musical event.
Whether you can experience all the drama, movement, and
emotions intended is the one truly meaningful measure of
any audio/video system. Take the time to visit your Bryston
dealer and audition our SST Amplifiers. We think that you’ll
rediscover how exciting audio can be.
