Bryston BP-19 Preamplifier: Bridging the Gap Between Tradition and Innovation

In a groundbreaking move, the revered Canadian audio maestro, Bryston, has just pulled the curtain back on their latest audio masterpiece – the BP-19 Preamplifier. Born from years of dedicated R&D and design expertise, this innovation powerhouse has harnessed the insights garnered during the development of the BR-20 preamplifier to bring the BP-19 to life.

Craftsmanship Meets Cutting-Edge Technology

Handcrafted on the pristine shores of Canada, the BP-19 embodies Bryston's unwavering commitment to excellence, backed by their legendary 20-year warranty. In the UK, the torchbearer for Bryston's legacy has been PMC UK Distribution, steadfastly representing the brand since the early '90s.

Performance Elevated: The Bryston BP-19 Preamplifier

Under the hood, the Bryston BP-19 boasts an oversized toroidal power transformer and meticulously chosen premium components. The result? A pristine audio signal with a virtually negligible Total Harmonic Distortion plus Noise (THD+N) level, clocking in at or below an astonishing 0.0006%.

A Symphony of Balance

The BP-19's signal path is a testament to precision and balance, featuring a fully balanced design from input to output. With an array of closely matched components and a compact circuit architecture, noise is reduced to the bare minimum, and common mode rejection reaches new heights. Adding to the finesse is an advanced volume attenuator that ensures your audio remains pure and unadulterated.

Connectivity Galore

The BP-19 isn't lacking in the connectivity department either. It flaunts two pairs of balanced XLR input jacks, accompanied by four pairs of RCA input connectors. For output, you have the choice of two pairs of RCA (phono) outputs, one fixed and one variable, and two pairs of balanced XLR outputs, again, one fixed and one variable.

Enter the World of Vinyl

For the first time ever, Bryston introduces the BP-2 moving magnet (MM) phono stage circuit as an onboard option for the BP-19 preamp. But that's not all; Bryston caters to vinyl aficionados with custom-made outboard step-up transformers, accommodating the lower output of Moving Coil (MC) cartridge setups.

Control at Your Fingertips

The BP-19 puts control squarely in your hands. An included infrared remote effortlessly manages many of its features, with corresponding buttons on the front panel for quick access. HEX codes are also available for universal remote compatibility. For tech enthusiasts, the BP-19 plays nicely with smart home ecosystems through its RS232 or Ethernet ports. Powering on/off other connected equipment is a breeze with its trigger outputs.

Personalization to Fit Your Aesthetic

To fit seamlessly into any entertainment space or decor, the BP-19 offers a choice of five standard faceplate finishes in 17 or 19-inch widths. Professional applications are equally well-served with 19-inch rack mounts. For the ultimate personal touch, Bryston opens the door to custom faceplate colors, not only for the BP-19 but also for amplifiers, CD players, digital players, phono stages, and DACs.

Pricing and Availability

Enthusiasts won't have to wait long to experience the BP-19's magic, as it's set to hit the market in Q3, 2023, with a suggested retail price of $5,195. Stay tuned for UK and Australia pricing details as they follow suit.

In the realm of audio engineering, Bryston's BP-19 Preamplifier stands as a testament to innovation, craftsmanship, and unparalleled performance. Get ready to elevate your audio experience to new heights with this Canadian masterpiece.
