edited January 2013 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
I need to pay some unexpected repair bills, so my Bowers and Wilkins M804 speakers and Balanced Audio Technology VK200 amplifier are up for sale. The amp is in almost new condition and comes with the factory box and packing. The speakers are in good condition and come with custom outrigger feet and the original boxes with packing. The crossovers in the speakers have been updated to current B&W standards with Mundorf and 1% matched components. A pair of custom bi-wire speaker cables will also be included with the speakers.

I would prefer to sell these together for $2000 as they are a great pairing, but am open to sell the speakers and amp separately for $1000 each. Shipping costs will be additional, but well packed with the factory boxes and foam.

Pictures this afternoon; My insurance deductable is your gain...
Jake

    Hi Jake,

    I am interested in your VK-200. I am set for speakers though, sorry. I will need to see what I can do for funds. I may be able to get them together. Is this $1000,00 shipped or plus shipping? I feel kinda bad about purchasing the amp if you don't really wanna sell it though. But if you need the funds, I am very very interested in finding out how this amp sounds paired with the VK-3i. I am reading a review right now that is reviewing both the VK-3i and VK-200.:cheesygrin:

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

    Congrats on the sale, and congrats to the new owner. This amp share a good amount of genealogy with my VK-500... if it sounds similar, its new owner is in for a real treat.

    I am looking forward to this! Paired with the VK-3i I am expecting phenominal results. From the things I have read about this amp it should be outstanding. It'll be interesting to compare the VK-200 to the Pass Aleph 30 to the Aragon 8008bb. I am hoping the BAT will be a combination of the Aragon and the Pass. I have read that the VK-200 does sound similar to the VK-500. One review I read said they prefered the sound of the VK-200 over the VK-500 as they felt it sounded more "musical". I haven't heard either one. If you end up listening to a VK-200 let me know as I would be interested in your comparisons.
