Hi Folks,
Please see attached a report from John Atkinson of Stereophile Magazine on our T-REX demo at the 2019 Montreal AudioFest. The quote below says it all ... and is the reason the T-REX models exist. James "By doubling up the speakers I like this, you get lower THD at reasonable SPL’s and having woofers spaced like this can, with care in placement, result in a more even low-frequency balance in the room" MEMO: To All Bryston Customers SUBJECT: Stereophile Report – Bryston Demo – Montreal AudioFest 2019 March 2019 “Bryston's room was big but these tall Bryston speaker towers were easily filling the space with a Leonard Cohen track when I entered. (Peculiarly, given that Cohen is a native son of Montreal, this was the only time I heard one of his songs at the show.) The system consisted of a pair of Bryston's new 21B3 amplifiers, BDP-3 digital player, BDA-3 DAC, BP-26/MPS-2 preamplifier, BAX-1 digital active crossover, and Bryston balanced interconnects and speaker cables. AC power was treated with a Bryston BIT 20 Isolation Transformer. The speakers? On closer examination, each appeared to be two Bryston Middle Ts, one mounted upside-down on top of the other. Bryston's James Tanner explained that this is the middle model of three brand new T-REX systems, each of which combines a pair of their speakers in this fashion. The smallest is the Mini T-REX, which combines two Mini-Ts, the largest the Model T-REX, which puts one already tall Model-T on top of another. The Middle T-REX speakers being demmed costs $12,000/pair and as you can see from the photo of its rear, the upper speaker actually has the terminals at what used to be its top. By doubling up the speakers I like this, you get lower THD at reasonable SPL’s and having woofers spaced like this can, with care in placement, result in a more even low-frequency balance in the room. After Leonard Cohen, I listened to a track by John Lee Hooker, with Van Morrison guesting on vocals— the bass guitar was remarkably even and the overall imaging well-defined, despite there being no acoustic treatment in the room. And when Tanner played me an EDM track, "Electrified" from Boris Blank, who used to be half of Yello, the deep bass "gulps" made my intestines shake in sympathy. Oh yeah !!!” John Atkinson, Stereophile |

INNER EAR REPORT
Montreal AudioFest 2019 – Bryston Demo Bryston showed the Middle T- Rex fully active system. Again, the sound was astoundingly good and coherent-sounding anywhere in the big room. Superb Audio - !!! Ernie Fisher Last edited by James Tanner - Bryston; 03-28-2019 at 10:57 AM. |

MEMO: To All Bryston Customers
SUBJECT: NOVO Magazine – Bryston Demo – Montreal AudioFest 2019 March 2019 Bryston Demo Montreal Audio Fest 2019 “As a long-standing iconic Canadian brand, Bryston always exhibits in a large room to showcase their gear. This year in Montreal they were once again showing the Active System with the Middle T-Rex loudspeakers, which are basically two pairs of their Middle T models stacked on top of each other and secured with brackets. The system was driven by two 21B3 (cubed) three-channel amplifiers with each channel controlling tweeters, midrange and woofers per side. The demo system also featured the BAX-1 DSP active crossover, the BDA-3 DAC and the BDP-3 digital player. Playing Leonard Cohen’s “Tower Of Song”, the system offered great imaging and sound-staging with a clean and coherent presentation that was musical and pleasing to the ear. This was a very admirable performance without stratospheric prices.” Alex Gorouvein, NOVO Magazine |
