Testing and Quality Control

Bryston's products are legendary not only for their sound quality but also for their reliability and longevity -- plus, Bryston backs their amplifiers and preamplifiers with an astonishing 20-year warranty, while their digital products are backed by a five-year warranty. One of the reasons Bryston can put such long warranties on their products has to do with the quality of the components used. Another reason is the testing they do at the completion of assembly to ensure the products don't fail in the field.
