rogue 66 vs the99
Hello, After using many high end preamps from ARC, Kora, Audible Illusions, etc.. I purchased the 99. It is the best sound I have ever had. There is something about the 6SN7GT sound that I really like. The gain knob is genius. It allows you to rea... 
Rogue owners, ideas please
Greetings, I use the Rogue 99 with a Kora Galaxy amp. I have found the TekLine 500-S and 300 with Goertz Bi-Wire MI-2 speaker cable to work well. 
bat vk 60 vs rogue mono 120s
David99. I just received a special phono board for my 99 that Mark O'put together for me. He put a few fancier parts and sent me a full compliment of NOS GE's and Tung-Sols. It is as awesome sounding as the line stage. I talked to him at great len... 
bat vk 60 vs rogue mono 120s
Sterling. I agree with you for the most part. The bat amps I have owned and heard are good. I have not had a chance to listen to the Rogue 120's to compare. The cost of the upgrade just miffed me a bit. I am now on a Kora Electronic Concept wagon ... 
bat vk 60 vs rogue mono 120s
Ok. One last attempt here to get my point across and then I will be quiet. Regardless of how nice people are if you bought an amp for say $4500 and then 3 to 5 years later they had an upgrade for the amp. You inquired about it, and they told you i... 
bat vk 60 vs rogue mono 120s
Here is the e-mail from VK. I really have nothing against VK and BAT but the way they do business. I like the Guano gear but as an EE type I get confused (pissed) when someone makes 6 (now 7) modifications to the board in 5 years. In the mini comp... 
bat vk 60 vs rogue mono 120s
Hello,I have owned the BAT VK-60 a few times (the same one). It had revision C boards. The amp was a cool looking and ok sounding but sounded very bright with various preamps (ARC LS-22, BAT VK-40, etc.) My biggest problem with BAT is the company.... 
Kora Integrated amps
Hello, I have had the D-30 and heard the Mercury. I now have the Kora Galaxy and will soon have the Eclipse pre-amp after I meet with a guy selling one tomorrow. The Design 30 sounds best between the two of them in mine and a friends opinion. It h... 
Montana speakers?
"Catman: Have you heard the larger SoundLab speakers, such as the A1 or M1, or the Ultimate? Would you prefer them to your Monties? By Bookner on 09-10-00" I have not heard the A-1's but I understand they have more bass. The A-3's had too much bas... 
Montana speakers?
Hello, I own a pair of Montana Prototypes that have the same driver compliment as the EPS (1 tweet, two 4" mids, two 8" woofers). They look like giant SP's and weigh about 200lbs each. The cabinet is not the new style 6 sided cabinet. They are won...
