Bryston’s BP26 sits near the top of the brand’s old-school analog preamp line: clean, rugged, and built to last. At A$2,995, this looks fairly priced to slightly ambitious, not a bargain. In the used market, a bare BP26 typically lands around A$2,200–A$2,800, with the MPS2 supply and remote pushing a complete set closer to A$2,800–A$3,400 depending on age and condition.
Before buying, verify exactly what’s included: MPS2 power supply, remote, umbilical cable, and original carton/receipt if possible. Also check for any scratchy input switching, noisy volume control, or hum from the power supply, and confirm whether it has the optional phono or DAC modules fitted, since that changes both value and rear-panel layout.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
