Bryston Unveils Flagship Active Loudspeakers

Bryston presents the Active Loudspeaker lineup with 3 different-sized speakers-- the Model T Active, Middle T Active and Mini T Active-- all mated to a DSP-enabled BAX-1 active crossover and Cubed Series amplifiers.

Bryston Active LoudspeakerThe Bryston Active Loudspeaker system leverages decades of research into acoustics and audio component design, and promise to recreate each recording with realism. Each system is optimised using an anechoic chamber, generating over 300 measurements residing within the system's software.

At the heart of each speaker is the BAX-1 crossover-- a digital crossover containing proprietary software for each model. It receives a full-range analog audio signal from the preamp, and performs 3-way crossover functionality and driver correction for each channel. It also applies any user-selected filters for tailing bass response, before sending the signal to each amplifier channel.

Customers can drive a pair of Bryston Active Loudspeakers with two 3-channel 21B3 amplifiers. Also available is the 24B3, a single chassis solution offering 6-channel amplification designed for use with the Middle T Active and Mini T Active systems. Both amps use colour-coded wiring for easy connection, and are available with either silver or black faceplates, 17-inch (without handles) or 19-inch (with handles).

As for the actual speakers, the Model T Active is a 52.5-inch tall floor-standing 3-way loudspeaker featuring three high-excursion 8-inch woofers, two 5.25-inch midranges and two 1-inch tweeters. The Middle T Active is a 39.5-inch floor-standing 3-way loudspeaker with two high-excursion 8-inch woofers, 5.25-inch midrange and 1-inch tweeter.

The final model, the Mini T Active, is a 22.5-inch bookshelf speaker customers can also use on a speaker stand. It carries a high-excursion 8-inch woofer, 5.25-inch midrange and a 1-inch tweeter. All Active loudspeakers ship in rich veneers, including black ash, natural cherry and Boston cherry.
