BAT VK-5i or VK30 ??


Hi folks!
Anybody who might have had compare them and would care to
express an opinion on this topic...I'm looking for richness and fullness in low midrange and I understood that both offers it in spades.
Should the cut in tube # and features from 5i to 30 be regarded as economy or technological advance from BAT?
Also, what would be a good price to pay for these models?
Million thanks!

Good point on the phono card. However, I demo'd the VK30 with card vs. my 5i and P5 and the 5i/P5 just blew the doors off the internal VK30 card for phono. Add to that the 5i's greater sense of space and smoothness and I believer the 5i/P5 is a clear winner. That said, I have since upgraded to the VK50SE and only have praise for it.
