Bryston has announced the ultra-high-performance BP-19 analog preamplifier. The BP-19 leverages years of R&D and many design innovations that were achieved during the development of the multi-award-winning BR-20 preamplifier.
According to the press release, the new preamplifier features an oversized toroidal power transformer and only the finest hand-selected premium components. The optimized discrete operational amplifier delivers a staggeringly low THD+N measurement at or below 0.0006%. The signal path features a fully balanced design from input-to-output, using an array of very tightly matched components and a compact circuit architecture, achieving the lowest possible noise and superior common mode rejection, Bryston says. The BP-19 also employs an advanced volume attenuator, ensuring long-lasting, quiet, linear performance.
The input array includes two pairs of balanced XLR input jacks and four pairs of RCA input connectors. There are two pairs of RCA (phono) outputs (one pair fixed, one pair variable), and two pairs of balanced XLR outputs (one pair fixed, one pair variable).
For the first time ever, Bryston is offering the legendary BP-2 moving magnet (MM) phono stage circuit as an on-board option for the BP-19 preamp. Bryston also offers specially designed, custom-made outboard step-up transformers to accommodate low output Moving Coil (MC) cartridge designs.
The BP-19 is available in five standard faceplate finishes, in 17 or 19-inch widths. 19-inch rack mount for professional applications are also available. Bryston also offers personalized custom faceplate colors for the BP-19 and other electronics such as amplifiers, preamplifiers, CD players, digital players, phono stages, and DAC’s.
