Bryston BIT RM Series Isolation Transformers

Bryston BIT RM Series Isolation Transformers

If you're chasing pure, distortion-free audio, the Bryston BIT RM Series isolation transformers are where the magic starts. You can have the most high-end gear in your rack, but if your power’s dirty? You’re only hearing half the story. These power conditioners aren’t just accessories—they’re essential tools for pulling every ounce of performance from your audio system.

Why Clean Power Matters More Than You Think

Ever wonder why your music sometimes sounds flat, even with great gear? The culprit could be lurking in your wall. Dirty AC power introduces noise that muddies your signal. The Bryston BIT cuts through all that junk like a sonic squeegee, letting your system breathe and perform at its best—no guesswork, no gimmicks.

Meet the Lineup: BIT15 and BIT20

Both the Bryston BIT 15 and BIT20 offer killer performance—but they serve different setups. Here’s the lowdown:

• BIT15 – Perfect if your system runs small amps (100W or under) or if you're just feeding power-hungry preamps, DACs, and source gear. Think of it like a personal trainer for your front-end.
• BIT20 – Bigger and badder. Handles more power and adds mechanical isolation to the transformer, which means even less in-room noise. Ideal if your gear draws serious juice.

Packed With Features That Actually Matter

What makes the Bryston BIT stand out? It’s not just another power bar with a fancy name—it’s designed from the ground up to protect and empower your system.

• Transformer-Based Isolation – Keeps AC mains noise out while letting your gear drink up all the current it needs—no choking, no restrictions
• Narrow Bandwidth Technology – Filters out high-frequency nasties before they touch your gear. Clean power in, pure sound out.
• Series Mode Surge Suppression – Stops surges cold, clamping at just 2 volts above normal. Way safer and more effective than those old-school MOV setups.
• Medical Grade Outlets – North American models come fitted with hospital-quality outlets. Yep, it’s that serious.
• Flexible Design – Choose between 17" or 19" panels (rack-mountable if needed), and pick black or silver to match your vibe.

Silence, Control, and Power—All in One Box

Here’s the thing: the Bryston BIT isn’t flashy. It won’t light up your room or make your speakers glow. But what it does do is give you dead-quiet backgrounds, jaw-dropping detail, and consistent performance every time you hit play. It's the foundation your audio gear has been begging for.
