BP6 Preamplifiers INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing a Bryston Preamplifier. Bryston welcomes any suggestions you may have, or comments regarding the operation of your amplifier. We consider you, our customer, to be Bryston’s most important resource, and your opinion is very much appreciated.

BP6 Preamplifiers MOVING MAGNET PHONO EQUALIZATION MODULE (optional) BRYSTON LIMITED WARRANTY Bryston’s optional phono stage circuitry features highly accurate equalization, extremely low noise and distortion and provides headroom margins sufficient to prevent overload from any known phono source. If your turntable provides a separate ground lead system noise may be minimized by connecting it to the ground post adjacent to the phono inputs on the rear panel.
