Other Notes: 

"This new BAT pre-amplifier will cost you about $10,500 with the remote …and the BAT VK-600-SE or the BAT VK-140-SE monoblocks (if you prefer tubes all the way through), are about $13k and $17k respectively. It's a lot of money, no question. And also no question that BAT will probably never be the flighty, fashion flavor of the month, any more than LAMM, Walker Audio, JENA Labs, or Critical Mass Systems will be. Like these other iconic, and idiosyncratic products, this top-of-the-line BAT equipment is the authentic expression of its designer and builders. But if any of my sweaty metaphors rang with true with you, if you are seeking emotional authenticity and you have done the hifi thing …perhaps this is a place you should visit. As with so many other long-term BAT owners, you may find an enduring joy here, as I have done." - Positive Feedback
