Bryston has expanded its loudspeaker range with the Mini A, a high-performance three-way bookshelf speaker engineered for superb resolution and balanced off-axis response — a hallmark of all Bryston loudspeaker models. At just over 15-inches tall, the Mini A features a sleek, décor-friendly form factor made sturdily from ¾-inch MDF and utilizing a premium quality 6.5-inch aluminum woofer, 3-inch aluminum midrange and 1-inch Titanium dome tweeter. All drivers are designed and purpose-built specifically for the Mini A loudspeaker.
The Mini A design has benefitted from extensive enclosure vibration analysis, crossover network refinement and anechoic chamber testing in order to deliver true high-fidelity at an affordable price. Like all Bryston loudspeakers, the Mini A is capable of high output levels without introducing distortion or compression into the listening experience. Each pair is unit-to-unit matched to ensure uniform response.
“The Mini was engineered from the ground up to set a performance standard for a speaker in this size and price range,” explained Bryston’s James Tanner. “Throughout our loudspeaker lineup, we employ three different midrange drivers and five different versions of our woofer — we are actually building drivers specifically to address design goals for each model.” The Mini A’s exceptional performance can be attributed to the refined product development process and quality components utilized in this loudspeaker,” Tanner added.
According to the Peterborough, Ontario (Canada), brand, the Mini A was also designed for home theater applications. Two pairs of Mini A loudspeakers (front and rear) combined with an AC-1 Micro center channel and the Model A subwoofer deliver Bryston performance in a complete 5.1 loudspeaker package for under $5000 MSRP. Also available is the Bryston CIW architectural speaker, a low profile timber-matched in-wall speaker solution for home theater applications.
The Bryston Mini A is available in Natural Cherry, Boston Cherry, and Black Ash. Custom finishes are also available for an upcharge. The Mini A features premium grade binding posts along with padded feet, spikes and a black fabric grille. Like all Bryston loudspeakers, the manufacturer’s warranty is 20 years. The Bryston Mini A loudspeaker has an MSRP of $1200 per pair and is available now. Optional stands designed for the Mini A, which can be bolted to the speakers securing them in place, are available with an MSRP of $299 per pair.
Bryston first opened for business in 1962 as a manufacturer of precision medical equipment. The company was purchased in 1968 by John W. Russell, an ex-NASA engineer. Together with sons Chris, Brian and John D., they first started exploring the field of accurate, reliable audio amplification in the early 1970s. Since that time, Bryston analog and digital components as well as loudspeakers and subwoofers have become legendary for their superior design, hand-built quality, superb performance and dependability for home, professional and commercial markets.
Bryston components are used in some of the world’s most renowned recording studios and owned by many discerning music professionals. Bryston applies precision manufacturing techniques and materials in the assembly of equipment that are more typically utilized by the military and aerospace industries.
