Item Description
Thanks to the generosity of Victor Khomenko, Steve Bednarski and Geoff Poor of Balanced Audio Technology (BAT), we are able to offer a superb BAT VK-40 Balanced line-stage preamplifier with remote-control, as part of the Audio Asylum Asian Tsunami Victim Support Auction.
The VK-40 is BAT's top-of-the-line solid-state preamp, and a Stereophile Class A component. It features BAT's trademark high-current Unistage topology, coupled with a sophisticated, yet easy to use, remote control.
The elegant, machined-case transmitter can be used to select the source component, and to adjust volume, phase, balance and mono/stereo switching. BAT's proprietary electronic shunt volume-control utilizes Vishay bulk metal-foil resistors in the signal-path for startling clarity and transparency of sound, while allowing adjustment of the level in precise 0.5 db increments.
The VK-40's purist design combines BAT's high-current zero-feedback single gain stage topology with dual-mono construction for maximum stereo separation, and a massive power-supply with 130,000 microfarads of capacitance for wide bandwidth and lightning-fast response.
The simple elegance of the VK-40s enclosure, its astonishing performance and its ease of use--make this a component you'll want to use for a lifetime. -And when you're gone, your children will thank you, too!
This extraordinary preamp is backed by equally-extraordinary service from longtime backers of Audio Asylum. To get an idea of the customer care BAT offers, you can even view the owner's manual on their website. This unit is new in the box, with full warranty, remote-control and manual.
This fabulous preamp can be yours, if you are the winning bidder. PLEASE support this auction--a GREAT product, and a GREAT cause!
