Whether you’re using a moving magnet or moving coil cartridge, this preamp ensures the music reaches your ears exactly as the artist intended.

Pure sound, thoughtful design

Bryston created the BP-3 to deliver high performance in a compact and practical form. Its low-noise analog design offers clarity and depth. Additionally, it includes a custom RIAA equalization circuit for accurate playback. Every part of the signal path is analog, preserving the natural tone of your records.

Main features:

• Works with MM and MC cartridges — easily switch modes from the front panel
• Shielded MC transformers — reduce noise and boost signal strength
• Select MC gain — choose 20dB or 26dB using internal jumpers
• MM capacitive loading options — 0pF, 100pF (default), 200pF, or 300pF
• Front-panel mono switch — improve sound on monophonic records
• Balanced and single-ended outputs — for flexible system integration

Better performance with fewer compromises

To begin with, the BP-3 runs cool and quiet. It’s powered by Bryston’s external PS-3 power supply, which keeps noise away from the audio path. A secure XLR-6 connection ensures stable and safe power delivery. Also, high-quality internal components help prevent interference from nearby electronics.

Customize to match your cartridge

The BP-3 offers real flexibility. For moving magnet cartridges, you can adjust capacitive loading in 100pF steps. Simply set the jumpers inside the unit to match your cartridge and cable combination. For moving coil cartridges, gain settings can also be adjusted. You can choose 20dB or 26dB based on the output voltage of your cartridge, no additional modules needed.

Looks as good as it sounds

Not only does the BP-3 perform beautifully, it also looks the part. Bryston offers custom faceplate colors to fit your space. Whether you want your gear to blend in or stand out, there’s a finish that fits your style.

Built to last

Like all Bryston gear, the BP-3 is made in Canada and backed by long-term support. It’s more than a phono stage, it’s a solid part of your hi-fi journey. If you’re serious about analog sound, the BP-3 offers a refined, accurate, and highly musical experience.
