This Bryston 14B ST has incredible power of 600watts at 8ohms
and 800watts at 4ohms load and have a minimum of 500watts,
A dual mono amp. Retails about $7200.

Anyone knows about this amp, because someone selling me this amp for almost half of the retail value NEW in the box. If I will
get it this will drive my 1.2TL's.

Any idea about this amp?

    Canadian built, heavy ****'s carrying a 20 year transferable warranty. They have an excellent reputation and consistency receive good reviews. They are known for their powerful and controlled bass. I doubt you can go wrong with a Bryston.

    It's the dual mono version of the 7B-ST. The price around here is $6000.00 for the 14B-ST and at half price you've got a great deal.
    I agree with Aaron, you can't go wrong.

    The 1.2TL's will make the most out of that much power! I have read only good things about Bryston. It should be very good quality.

    I can say one thing........customer service......my cousin pick up an old Bryston amp from a yard sale and the 20 yr warranty was still valid......he sent the sick puppy to the dealer and they replaced most of the old parts and replaced them with new parts at no charge.

    Wow... that's the most important thing of all "customer service and support for their products". I am really convinced to get that
    14B ST amp from Bryston.

    For 600watts of power at 8ohms I think it matches the Krell FPB 600c but I don't know which one of these is much better...
    whatever, I also know that Bryston is much less expensive than Krell's.

    I don't think you can compare Bryston to Krell. I would place Krell on the next, and highest, plane of performance.
