Interesting. This new bha1 compared the the other I have has way more gain. 9 o'clock on low gain is enough for most cans, but I have it at 3 o'clock on the older bha1 for the same volume. The new one is fed by the bda3, but the other the benchmark dac3b. Bass also seems way more intense. Hmmmm...

Also, the volume pot has consistent increase in volume from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock on the new one, unlike the other that is pretty much the same volume from 10 until 2 until you get past 2 o'clock.

Looks like a silent revision.

Yes I'm guessing.

 

[340519]

Oh well, I guess I just have to crank the older one up.

So now one in the bedroom and one in the man cave.

Beautiful silver pairing. Bryston build quality is real nice.

Hi,
Is there anyway to add a remote control to the BHA-1? I would like to have a remote for the volume control when I listening to my headphones a few feet away.

Thanks

I would ask on the audio circle bryston forum. They answer back personally on there.

Wow this amp is incredible. I really could never say I need anything beyond a bryston.

Abyss show up this week. My dealer sells both brands and they have stated that the bryston has plenty of power for the tcs. It has 6 class a amps inside it for goodness sake. Bryston makes some of the beefiest amps I've ever come across so I'm not worried.

From Brytson's website:

SPECIFICATIONSTHD+N (20Hz-20kHz @ Rated Power):	<0.005%
SPECIFICATIONSPower Output (per channel):	2W @ 32Ω

 

[340519]

SPECIFICATIONSSensitivity:	HI (approx 20 dB) setting: 70mV in = 100 mW out into 50 Ω (500mV in = 5V out)
SPECIFICATIONS	LO (approx 14 dB) setting: 140mV in = 100 mW out into 50 Ω (500mV in = 2.5V out)

I never get that power rating. Not a big number, but in reality, it's more powerful than all my previous SS amps.

Is it because most manufacturers overrate their power rating? Or that Bryston underrates it?
