for the 4B SST
Bryston's CEO Chris Russell was extremely helpful in tailoring this amp to my needs. I have the 17" front (no handles), .3" feet and 1/4" speaker mounts to match my thick Cardas spades. The amp runs cool, easily provides rated power and more and is extremely quiet. The new grounding scheme really seems to work: I had some hum from my Rotel 991 RB, and now mt system is dead quiet.
Product Weakness: not the 14B-SST - I don't have room Product Strengths: superb bass control, fast and very neutral sound
