In Reply to: Bryston SP1, anyone eliminate their stereo preamp and is now sorry? posted by Fauskar on February 23, 2002 at 08:35:56:
As you've probably read elsewhere, the analog bypass in the SP-1 is supposed to be electronically identical to the circuit in the BP-25. If you like your BP-20, I'd suggest you'll be very happy with the SP-1.I do a lot of 2 channel listening (probably 75%). I find the SP-1's analog bypass very neutral and clean, which is the sound I prefer (so far!) Very definately NOT a tube-y sound, but you knew that already (it is a Bryston, after all.)
I'd suggest waiting a bit to see whether the SP1.7 is released 'on schedule' or not. Old SP-1s *should* be upgradeable, but I've heard no word on that, either.
Peace.
