Balanced amp for Bat vk5i...

I use a Levinson 331 with the vk5i and love it. If you want more power, try the 332 or 333. Good luck!

Why not a BAT product, SS or tube the synergy would be very good! I had both the 75SE and a pair of VK60 mono's and both sounded great with my VK50SE preamp.

Naturally BAT would be good, however I have found that Levinson amps work well with BAT tube preamps.

Save a bit more and get a 336. Aerial's love power.
I had 10t's and now have 20t's with Levinson amps.

Best,

Paul :-)

Although I am a happy user of a VK-500, I think that I would recommend the Plinius, as most bang for the buck. With plinius, you may want to read up on the differences between different Mk. versions of the amps before deciding.

Disclaimer: I admit that I have listened to more BAT and Plinius gear than Levinson and Classe. I also have not listened to Arial's. They may indeed have a Levinson synergy.

Have fun.
