2.5B Cubed Dual-Mono Amplifier

2_5B3 Macro-web

Though most recognize Bryston for big ultra-high powered amplifiers, few realize that we have big sound in small packages too. The 2.5B Cubed is no flea-watt model, yet at 135 watts per channel, it is our lowest output Cubed Series model. The benefit is a compact chassis and great price for a level of clarity and sound quality that usually costs far more. Featuring an identical power section as our B135 Cubed integrated amplifier, this stand alone dual-mono design sounds incredible in systems where massive power output is simply a waste.

"He's an emotionally naked singer, so it's just you and him, and the 2.5B3 makes that perfectly clear. I felt a total connection to his sound, so my audio system melted away, and all that remained was Brosseau and his hollow-body electric guitar. The best components do that; they let the music come through, seemingly without adding or taking anything away."

"There are few amplifiers that offer a more even, composed, linear character than the 2.5B3. This amplifier is very enjoyable and entertaining to listen to for long periods. No particular trait draws the listener’s attention away from the overall performance due to some imbalance or distracting sonic flaw. The Bryston 2.5B3 Cubed is a fine amplifier that will survive many system upgrades."
