Benchmark Media Systems

A lifelong hobby, refined. My system was fairly revealing (Roon Nucleus, Bryston BDA-3 DAC, Classé amplifiers, Revel Ultima Studio 2 speakers), but the LA4, in place of the 2008 vintage Classé pre-amp, was a revelation. Improved clarity across the frequency band; lowered noise floor, with much better low-level detail, wider soundstage. This was apparent out of the box (!), but I suspect there may be improvement with time. It's an over-used statement, but: old recordings sound new and fresh, with better imaging and truer-to-life tonalities. At this price, it's an astonishing bargain. Kudos, Benchmark!

Excellent service. The RCA to BNC digital cable was made with quality materials and works perfectly for my application. Thanks!

Amazingly quiet, perfect with high efficiency speakers

The guy, I talked to on the phone was super knowledgeable and really nice. I don’t think businesses really understand the value of customer service, Benchmark does.

Outstanding customer service as always.
