As a result of the patented technology developed for the Bryston cubic series of amplifiers in collaboration with Dr. Salomay, intermodulation distortion decreased to 0.006 percent and total harmonic distortion to 0.005 percent at maximum power, which nevertheless increased significantly for each channel to 200 watts at 8 ohms load. Bryston's 20-year warranty remains the same.
This product has been continuously produced (although often improved) since 1978. This esteemed amplifier is currently in its sixth generation, and it has never been better. Now with 300 watts per channel at 8 ohms (and over 500 watts at 4 ohms), this true dual mono amplifier is powerful enough for almost any speaker, but its price remains affordable. The degree of clarity, power, nuance, and outright truthfulness of this amplifier is staggering. If you've always wanted one, maybe now is the right time.
The new generation of amplifiers has noticeably improved protection against various interference, redesigned power supply, now StandBy consumption is less than 500 MW, and the design has been modernized (a decorative overlay has appeared in the center of the front panel, and additional chamfers have been made on the handles). The remaining electrical characteristics and switching capabilities remained at the highest level of Bryston. Like all Bryston devices, the 14 B3 amplifier can be available in both black and silver colors, as well as in a 17- or 19-inch front panel design.
The Bryston BD-325 is a Class D multichannel power amplifier. Dynamic power (100 ms) available for all channels: 4,500 watts.
The continuous RMS power of this stereo amplifier per channel at a resistance of 8 ohms is 225 watts, at a resistance of 4 ohms — 450 watts.
