Preamp choices:Short list

Hello,
I am not familiar with BAT. I am demoing the Rouge RP7 and RP9. They are incredible. Plus, there are options for balanced and unbalanced for inputs and outputs. It has extra outputs for subs, full remote control and a home theater pass through. Crazy good options. Also going to look into the Rouge Dragon amplifier. If you are looking for a deal on Rouge RP7 or RP9 look into https://holmaudio.com/rogue-audio/
Call and ask for Mike about price ;)

Hello Jim,
I used the Rouge RP7 with a pair of Esoteric MG20 speakers. These are not bass heavy speakers. But they are very good detailed speakers that physically disappeared when played through the Rouge RP7. What I was very excited about was it balanced the sound beautifully without the use of subs. I used these speakers through a Mark Levenson and a Hegel 390 integrated amps. With these two brands they lacked a balanced sound they lacked bass. With the Rouge RP7 the sound was perfect. That says a lot about this preamp.
