I went down to his (production Facility) in Dallas back in March. I spent 4 hours reviewing a couple of configurations he was working on and listening to the difference between solid state rectifier and tube rectifier. His operating space is chaos, parts every where, test equipment non existent. His speaker listening room was his very small (his living room) He had a pair of 70K box speakers up against the front walls. When we started listening I kept hearing a difference in volume, he discover that his pre amp settings were off. Ok now get past all that I did like the amp and it's features BUT,,,I kept trying to get him to take an order. He said well the price is gonna be between $2600 and $3200, I was ready to write the check that day. I ended up leaving him with a list of details I wanted; he told me he would have me a quote within the week. He never sent the quote to me, you snooze you lose. I ended up buying a audiophile version of the ST70 from Kenny Russell and this is my favorite Amp.

Bryan and I have become good friends. I bought an old Dynaco St70 and he checked it out added a few things to make it better. I wanted to start with an original Dynaco as a benchmark. I’ve compared mine to his amp and believe me his is better….much better. Great person with a passion for audio and has the understanding to bring to market something very special.

I just purchased one from Bryan a few weeks ago. Not only is it an outstanding amp but Bryan is a class act! Now just waiting on DAnny to finish his new marvels to hook it up to!!
