Default Customer Comments - General Discussion

Hi James,

I have been surfing the net tonight and have read a few interviews with you and Brian Russell. I appreciate how candid you are with respects to the future of high end audio.

Firstly, let me state that I feel Bryston’s approach to product design makes the most sense to me going forward. Focus on quality, engineering/design, dependability (not “bells and whistles”) and you will flourish. For those of us customers in “the know”, this is reflected in your quality for dollar ratio. As well, (and as Brian stated) there are many folks who still have massive CD collections as well. So – (as with the resurgence of vinyl amongst the young generation, there will likely be a resurgence of CD’s too!) don’t dismiss “old tech”.

Cultivating the next generation audiophile is a challenge, primarily because of their drift away from “larger scale” sound systems and tendency towards “more is better” (ie 10,000 mp3’s on their “devices” or purely streaming). As well, (and I am in Vancouver) the lack of affordable housing that will accommodate a “large system” listening environment.

I can tell you this however. When I played Tears for Fears “Seeds of Love” through my Bryston 4B3 based system to my MP3 loving son…. His comment when it was done was simply “that was incredible”.

I think we have to educate younger people to the joys of experiencing full range hi end audio in a decent sized listening space where the music is experienced coupled with the room. I was a lucky teen who grew up in the “golden age” of audio (late 70’s) whose parents let him listen to a lovely 40 watt per channel Kenwood system in his bedroom. That was all it took to sell me on what it meant to spend my hard earned (lawn cutting money) cash to reach for the best quality sound I could get. I have never lost that aspiration and now, as stated in previous email, I am the proud owner of a Bryston system (BP-6/4B3), something I have been waiting for all my life. I have shared the soul stirring beauty of music that your products assist in delivering with my young son. I trust you too can appreciate how that feels and this is “the seed” we must sew for future generations of music lovers!

Thanks again (and I do hope you read all of this!)
