There was a review over at Audioscience that wasn't particularly glowing - https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...tek-brooklyn-bridge-ii-streamer-review.52460/
I don't have an answer to your question, but just want to say this....
@Chudalicious I'm very happy owner of original Brooklyn Bridge and use it despite the fact I have Chord Hugo TT2 on the same desk Mytek is installed. The problem with BB2 is that I have no reason to upgrade, especially when filter setting is not fixed. I do not need extra storage space that BB2 provides as I already have different storage solutions. As a single device solution both BB OG and BB2 are very tempting but for existing owners there maybe little reason (like in my case) to upgrade, hence very few people discuss it here. Mytek also never had a strong PR around their products plus their recent problems with HEM and supply chain changes and long development / shipment times aren't helping either. Overall I wish Michal all the best and keep my fingers crossed as I really like their design and ideas. One thing that keeps away from current product line is their new pricing. Original BB had been very competitive when you consider Macintosh MHA150 or Chord TT2 for example and a lot broader BB/BB2 functionality. With current pricing is it not that competitive (while still offering functionality that only very few other manufacturers also provide in similar price range). I have heard Empire at show and I haven't been impressed much. Manhattan is out of production if I understand correctly.
@sygnus21 indeed - at least I haven't been able not only to image but to get the idea how particular audio device is sounding from ASR reviews. I strongly believe in one policy: listen yourself.
If you're not in a position to listen to an amp before getting it, you can use reviews (video, pro, end user) to gage an idea of what an amp may sound like.
