I look forward to further reports on the Bryston. Does anyone know what the wait is on the Bryston, given that the company just recently started shipping units?

We are getting 1 every couple of weeks. So until they get caught up on production and back orders it is slow going. The quicker you order the quicker you will get one:) I still dont have mine. I have been sending every unit the comes in out the same day. Have a couple more coming this week. So now we are up to pairs:)

Wondering if I should get this new bryston since I'd be able to get a fantastic price on it, or get the WA22... Or just save some money and go with the mjolnir
 
If anyone who has the BHA-1 and has heard the WA22 before, let me know how they compare.
 
I wasn't expecting favorable impressions with the HD800, for the tendency of Bryston to produce very bright/analytical sound. Apparently not I guess!

Maybe we can set an audition at my place. I am from Montreal too. Really satisfied with the Bryston. But with the LCD-2.

Yes it seems that the Bryston is amazing with the Audez'e. I wouldn't mind having a little audition. Maybe in a few weeks when I have the mjolnir we can compare, and if the Bryston turns out to be substantially better; I'd by that amp as well

To my taste, the Bryston bettered the Liquid Fire with Calyx DAC and HD800. More attack, much higher resolution, almost at the edge of being harsh, but not. The Liquid Fire by comparison, was relaxed, forgiving, and less real. The owner of the Liquid Fire preferred less attack so preferred the Fire, we're both happy with our amps for the HD800.

With the LF, it can also depend on the tubes used FWIW. With the stock or Gold Lions I can understand, but with a quad of NOS Mullards or Siemens, it has a good amount of attack and is a different beast. Tomorrow, I'm hoping to get to hear the Bryston....I'll report back if I do.

Great idea. Let me know when you're ready for it.

I'm from Montreal too and I'd be interested to listen to these amps. I could bring my B22 for a little SS amps shootout !

It should be cool!
 
If dleblanc343 agree, we can organize a listening session when he receives his Mjolnir.
 
I propose my place. I live in Côte St-Paul (near Verdun).
 
The only detail I have to know: Do you prefer wine or beer!
