What's even more amazing about that Bryston, is that at 1000W output, the noise is in the picoWatt region. I'd love to know how Bryston pulled that off.

A 1000 Ohm resistor at room temperature and operating with a 10KHz bandwidth generates noise in the nanoWatt region. That's just thermal noise...at room temperature...which the Bryston is not when it's outputting 1000W. This does not include shot noise, burst noise, flicker noise, intermodulation noise or transit time noise. And I'm probably missing a bunch of noises I'm not familiar with. And that's just one element - a resistor. The Bryston has hundreds of elements. And it's 1000 times less noisy than a single resistor!

I guess that's why it costs $US12K for mono!
