GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Warranty Information:
Thank you for choosing a Bryston product. We welcome any suggestions you may have, or comments regarding the operation of your am­plifier. We consider you, our customer, to be Brystons’ most important resource, and your opinion is very much appreciated.
Bryston products are warranted to be free from manufacturing defects for a minimum of 20, (twenty), years from the original date of manu­facture. This includes all parts, labor and one­way return shipping. This warranty covers the original owner and any subsequent owners. The warranty is retroactive for any Bryston product purchased within the last twenty years.
Bryston 14B- ST Amplifier Description:
The Bryston 14B-ST is a Stereo 2-channel power amplifier consisting of two totally inde­pendent amplifier modules, each with its own power transformer and +/-60V power supply.
Tampering by anyone other than factory author­ized personnel voids the warranty. Warranty service may be obtained by returning the unit to any authorized Bryston dealer or distributor. You may also contact the Bryston factory or na­tional service offices directly at the location listed on the rear page of this manual.
Please keep the original box and all packing material. This will ensure the amplifier is pro­tected in the unlikely event you have a problem and must return it for service. No warranty card is necessary to initiate your coverage. Please refer to the back page for more detailed war­ranty information.
Each audio channel provides connections for balanced or single ended input and will sup­ply a minimum of 500 watts of power into 8 ohms or 800 watts into 4 ohms.
Installation Setup And Recommendations: CAUTION: Your 14B ST is a Stereo Amplifier
only and the outputs should never be con­nected in Series/Bridged or Parallel modes.
Make Sure The Circuit Breaker Switch Is OFF Until All Connections Are Made.
Power Switch(s): There are two power switches
on the 14B. The front panel ‘ST’ Power Switch and the rear panel On/Off Circuit Breaker.
The 14B has two, 2-position slide- switches labeled Power Up and Ext Trig and 1-Circuit Breaker Factory Settings are:
POWER UP – LOCAL, EXTERNAL TRIGGER – LOCAL, CIRCUIT BREAKER SWITCH – OFF
PLEASE REFER TO: ‘BRYSTON’S SAFETY MANUAL’ FOR FURTHER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
After confirming that all switches are in the proper positions and all input and output connections are correctly made, plug the amplifier into the proper wall outlet and activate the circuit breaker switch. The power amplified may now be turn on or off us­ing the front panel ‘ST’ power switch. If the rear panel power-up switch is in the ‘Local’ position and the amplifier is connected to the A/C power source the amplifier will turn on/off using the front panel ‘ST’ power switch. If for any reason the power is removed from the A/C line (ex: power fail­ure) the amplifier will turn off and will not turn on again after A/C is restored until the front panel ‘ST’ power switch is manually reactivated. When the rear panel power-up switch is in the ‘Auto’ position then any time A/C power is sup­plied (Power Bar, Switched power outlet etc.) the 14B will automatically power-up without having to acti­vate the ‘ST’ power switch.
