I went from separates and tubes to a SS integrated five years ago with a Hegel H200. A couple of months ago I bought a dealer demo of the Balanced Audio Technology VK3000SE Uses two 6H30 tubes in the pre section and then SS power section. Listening is split equally between LPs and digital rips of LPS and I like the sound, build quality and flexibility of the BAT. Just another unit to consider.
Integrated Amps - Ayre vs Pass Labs
Hey all,
In the very preliminary stages of starting a two-channel system from the ground up. I’d like to go with an integrated to save on space. No phono stage necessary at this point. I’m open to an incorporated DAC but it’s not a must have. Speakers, sources, etc. TBD.
Has anyone had experience hearing Pass’ INT-250 against Ayre’s AX-5 Twenty?
Thanks for reading,
CJ
