Other Notes: This preamp is coming from the estate of the original owner - An avid collector - most of the equipment from this estate was in either sealed boxes or showed very little signs of use. This classic and highly sought after preamp is in outstanding condition - looks nearly new."The Balanced Audio VK-5i sets new standards of construction and sound in the high-performance ("high-end") audio market. It's not surround sound, not THX, not DD, not DTS. None of those things. It is just plain fantastic." -Home Theater Hifi
