Commentary

A 5-channel power amplifier designed for surround playback.

In the 9B-CHANNEL THX, each of the five channels consists of an independent module.
This module combines power supply lines, signal lines, and heat dissipation packages.

The circuit design employs a Bryston's unique quad complimentary service configuration for high linearity and low distortion factor. The input circuit is designed to be as low impedance as possible to provide an amplifier resistant to noise and crosstalk.

The XLR3 / 1/4 phone jack combination connector (Neutrik Fl combo) and RCA-unbalanced gold plated input terminals are used for the input terminals.

Uses a speaker terminal that allows for reliable tightening.

Equipped with a 12 v remote power switch for THX.

There are 2 color variations of black and silver.
