I don't want to sell this but some things have changed and I need to downsize for a bit. So I'll be using an integrated amp for awhile with my Thiels in the meantime.

BAT VK31 pre amp. Best pre I have used so far. uses 6 6922 tubes and I have two different sets for it.

Willing to sell it all for 2300 shipped and paypal covered. Have the original box and remote. Does not have the phono board.

Selling my VTL MB300 Deluxe amps. Currently running 6550 tubes and will include another 6550 set that was from Upscale Audio with the purchase of the amps. These are not light and will run 75lb's a box and there's two. Best shipped freight but doesn't have to. The tubes will need to be shipped in a different box. I'm open to meet up in the MN, WI, IL area as would be best for them. I really don't want to see them go as these have been the best but I will do VTL again.

These VTL's have all the mods done to them except the upgraded binding post. I have all the paper work on them to show the mods and how much was paid. The mods were done by the previous owner at the factory. They include the upgraded transformers, KT88 or 6550 tubes can be used, triode and tretrode switching and new power switch. The only one issue is one binding post is slightly bent which I never have had an issue with.

Looking for 2500 plus shipping and 3% for paypal.

I have all the original boxes for these. If using paypal on the amps need to ad 3%

    Great stuff! But this is really the gear that separates us dabblers whose budgets rarely exceed a 1000 (our wives ready to CHOKE us if we even bring in "that" number, lol) from the serious audiophile who can up the ante closer to 5 figures and above.

    GLWTS!

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Good, because I had 2 g's in my pocket and was seriously considering, that was until the wife hit me with a rolling pin upside the head. For some unknow reason, she thinks new carpet or windows is more important.

    Happy to hear it. Enjoy it when you get the gear setup after your move.
