Bryston Bi 200 Phono-MM/MC Integrated Analog Amplifier
Exceptional Vinyl Playback with High-Fidelity Performance
The Bryston Bi-200 Phono-MM/MC Integrated Analog Amplifier is the result of extensive research and development, incorporating an optimized discrete buffer amplifier to achieve exceptionally low THD+N distortion. Designed specifically for audiophiles who demand the highest fidelity, the Bi-200 seamlessly integrates a fully balanced analog signal path with tightly matched components, ensuring superior common-mode noise rejection and minimal signal degradation.
Unparalleled Phono Performance
-
Moving Magnet (MM) & Moving Coil (MC) Compatibility – Supports both cartridge types, delivering outstanding performance for vinyl playback.
-
Precision RIAA Equalization – Bryston’s proprietary RIAA curve implementation provides exceptional accuracy in frequency response, ensuring faithful reproduction of recorded audio.
-
Optimized MM Phono Stage – 41dB @1kHz gain preamp with unique RIAA playback equalization, maintaining high accuracy across all frequencies.
-
Step-Up MC Transformer – Internal proprietary transformer available with 20dB or 26dB gain, allowing low-output MC cartridges to interface seamlessly with the MM phono section.
Advanced Engineering for Superior Sound Quality
-
Fully Balanced Circuit Design – Employs advanced volume control chips that eliminate traditional potentiometer limitations, resulting in lower noise floor and improved common-mode noise suppression.
-
Dedicated Headphone Amplifier – Bryston’s most powerful onboard headphone amplifier, designed to deliver high-output capability with critically low impedance, rivaling the renowned BHA-1 outboard headphone amplifier.
-
High-Resolution Audio Performance – The amplifier’s wide frequency response (20Hz – 20kHz ±0.05dB) and ultra-low distortion (≤0.0005% THD) ensure lifelike sound reproduction.
