Intergrateds: BAT's VK-300X /SE or Simaudio i-7

I'm looking to replace my amp and pre with a good intergrated amp. I've been looking at Simaudio's Moon i-7
and BAT's VK-300X. The VK-300X/SE has a tube pre-amp and solid state amp built in.
I'd like to hear any comments from folks that have owned or own either.
Thanks. Sally

I have had many integrateds....the older Sim, the BAT, Classe...etc. To my ear, the Bryston B100 SST is hard to beat.

I had the VK-300X/SE. Depending on your tastes and system it may be just what you want. For me & my system, the Bat was strong on detail but a little bit short on musicality. I have since thought that if I had gotten the tube version but not the supertube version I might have been where I wanted to be. Good luck.
