"Extremely High Output, and Low Distortion"Though slightly smaller and less expensive than Bryston's top-of-the-line Model T, this A Series flagship remains formidable. Based upon Bryston's custom 6-1⁄2" bass driver trio, the A1 provides very deep and articulate bass. The midranges and tweeters are no different than those found in the Model T series, meaning they are top-notch designs in every respect. The colorful palette of your music and movies can be beautifully rendered with this high performance seven driver three way tower. Clear, clean, deep and powerful, these speakers are equally adept at home theater soundtrack or world class two channel stereo music playback. "The A1 is a is a three-way design with seven – yes, seven – drivers: two tweeters, two midranges, and three woofers. The design goals for it were exceptional neutrality, extremely high output, and low distortion, which are the things they also went for with the Model T," notes a SoundStageGlobal.com post for September 27, 2013. "I guess you could consider the A1 the T's lower-priced little brother visually and sonically. Oh, and yes, Bryston still makes amps." Powerfully Impressive DriversBuilt to be exceptionally high quality and affordable, the Bryston Model A1 boasts new driver designs, enclosure vibration analysis, crossover refinement, and anechoic chamber testing. All of this went into creating an amazing product, which brings superior design to the table. For very natural and highly realistic sound reproduction, the A1 employs three of Bryston's newly developed, high output, low distortion 6.5" aluminum cone woofers, two 5.25" aluminum cone midwoofers, and two 1" titanium dome tweeters. The results of this impressive complement of drivers working synergistically together is truly amazing to hear. Substantial EnclosureTaking inspiration from the larger and more expensive Model T series, the A1 features 3⁄4"-thick cabinet construction and lots of internal bracing unequally spaced to ensure that no two surfaces are mathematically prone to resonate at the same frequency. Goodies ProvidedBlack fabric grilles are provided. The speaker also comes with padded feet and spikes each of which may be screwed into threaded inserts found at the base of the loudspeaker. Padded feet (pictured left) are suitable for protecting hard floors beneath the speaker from damage. Spikes are recommended for use on carpet. Superior Suspended DisbeliefA state-of-the-art audio system involves what some refer to as a 'suspension of disbelief.' This means the playback system transcends the recorded medium and transports you to a live venue. You forget it's a recording and believe you are there at the live performance. Bryston's goal with the Bryston Model A1 loudspeaker is to provide its customers with a superior level of 'suspended disbelief.'
