Bryston BP25 Preamp with Internal DAC and MPS 1 Power Supply Very good condition and in full working order with remote. Serviced by PMC in 2020.
This £1,700 asking price is a strong deal, sitting well below the 25th percentile of £1,044 and significantly under the median of £1,997 for recent GBP listings of comparable Bryston preamps. While the BP25 is an older generation now succeeded by models like the BP26 DA, its timing makes it an excellent entry point for those seeking Bryston's legendary build without the new-model premium.
The BP25 remains highly regarded for its analog purity, delivering a “fat,” pure sound that enthusiasts love for its simplicity and lack of digital processing artifacts. Including the internal DAC and the dedicated MPS 1 power supply adds meaningful value, as external power supplies are key to Bryston’s noise-free performance. This clean, good-condition listing with essential internals included is a genuine buying opportunity for a well-loved, durable preamp at a bargain price.

Bryston emerged from Canada's medical electronics sector, where it began producing high-tech blood analyzers in 1962. The pivot to high-performance audio came in 1976, sparked by James Tanner's quest to drive demanding electrostatic speakers. Drawing on medical-grade components, the debut of the 4B amplifier at the Chicago Consumer Electronics Show marked the brand's entry into hi-fi, quickly earning acclaim from critics like Peter Aczel and establishing its Canadian manufacturing legacy.
Renowned for robust amplifiers and preamplifiers, Bryston has expanded into digital components such as DACs and streamers, as well as powered speakers. This evolution reflects a commitment to both analog purity and modern digital demands, serving consumer, professional, and commercial markets—from home listening to stadium sound reinforcement—while maintaining a focus on uncompromised musical accuracy.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audio arena, Bryston commands respect for its no-nonsense engineering, timeless designs, and unparalleled reliability, backed by industry-leading warranties. Music and movie enthusiasts trust it for scientifically verifiable sound quality that endures for decades, cementing its status as a benchmark for discerning buyers seeking longevity without compromise.
