I own Bliss Hifi, a high-end audio boutique and this Bryston BP20 preamplifier is being listed as a consignment sale on behalf of one of my clients. For a vintage piece, it is in very good cosmetic condition and works flawlessly. It comes with its external power supply and ships in its original box.
Check my stellar feedback and buy with confidence. This item includes free insured shipping across the CONUS. As this is a passthrough sale that I am brokering on behalf of my client, I can only accept payments via PayPal F&F, Venmo Gift, or personal check.
Happy to answer any questions. Thanks for your consideration.
More about the unit:
Produced between 2000 and 2003, Bryston BP20 represents the Canadian manufacturer’s dedication to creating a transparent, neutral preamplifier built on fully discrete circuitry and professional-grade engineering principles. Featuring Bryston’s signature robust construction with a separate power supply design, the BP20 achieves remarkably low distortion specifications of just 0.0025% THD while maintaining a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz with exceptional linearity. The preamplifier incorporates both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs and outputs, with the balanced configuration providing superior noise rejection for long cable runs. Input sensitivity of 500mV and an outstanding 100dB signal-to-noise ratio ensure compatibility with a wide range of source components while maintaining the silent background essential for revealing low-level musical details.
The BP20’s fully discrete analog circuitry delivers what users consistently describe as an “extremely relaxed and musical” presentation that defies typical solid-state characteristics, combining transparency and neutrality with exceptional extension at frequency extremes. Available in multiple configurations including standard line-level versions and optional phono-equipped models (BP20P for moving-magnet cartridges and BP20MC for moving-coil), the preamplifier provides versatility for both digital and analog source enthusiasts. The separate power supply effectively isolates sensitive audio circuits from AC line contamination, contributing to the BP20’s ability to reveal incredible inner detail and resolution that draws listeners into the music. Built to Bryston’s legendary quality standards and backed by their renowned warranty, the BP20 delivers professional-grade performance with the musicality and long-term reliability that have made Bryston a trusted name among audiophiles and recording professionals worldwide.
