The new D/A converter will probably increase the sampling rate to 192/24 or 32 PCM. I am sure this pre-amp will benefit from the cubed technology also which may make it competitive if not better than the BP26.

Hi Stefan

Yes the old internal DAC in the BP17 was limited to 96/24 and the new plug in DAC can do PCM 192/36.

Is the BR2 available with updated button labels to match functionality with the new preamp and dacs? So I don’t have to select 5/Aux/Ph to get BAL1 for example.
Thanks

Hi James, when was the new dac module made available, or did the Cubed model always have it? Is it possible to get an AES/EBU input?

As for the remote, any chance Bryston has updated or will update the button labels?

HI Stefan

The new DAC became available just last month.

There is only 1 remote now and it is the BR2.

Congrats James. I am certainly happy with mine

Is it possible to upgrade firmware (if it has any) in the preamp?

Looks like the prefect front-end for a new B300-ST-cubed integrated amp. Plug-in modules (2) for DAC & phono & ??

Fellow BP-17 owners,

Has anyone noticed a “rogue” LED illuminating on the front panel when the unit is turned off?

I don’t just mean the red Standby LED. I occasionally (once or twice a week) get a red or green LED on Input 4 / D2 coming when it goes into Standby.

It goes away when power is cycled of course. Doesn’t seem to affect anything... Just a bizarre glitch!
