I just got a low mile BHK 250 to replace an Audio Research Ref 150. Took me a minute to adjust to the not as buttery top end but now I’m really liking it. Lower heat, better bass, great mid and smooth top end. Has the Tungsram tubes. I think this will do until i can afford a used ARC Ref 160 S. My speakers are Vandersteen Treo CTs. Good luck!
PS Audio BHK 250 - Is it still a good amp?
I want to move away from tube power amps, but not tubes in source components.
Have read so much good about the BHK 250, but it’s an old lady now, and I wounder if there is something better out there for the same money.
This is what I want form a new amp.
My current speakers are the Tekton DI, 4 ohm with a sensitivity of 96db. Would like to have a amp that can drive a 87 db speaker.
I also don’t want think about replacing expensive tubes, and live with the heat the generate.
There are many used BHK 250 in the states, But I live in Denmark and there are not many used BHK's in Europe
I would like to thank the audiogon community for there knowledge and there willingness to share and help, your are the best (:Just hope that we will get an updated platform to work on. The Audiogon software is so yesterday.
Wish you all a Happy New Year

- Power to drive any speaker
- Sound that reassembly tubes
- In the same price range as the BHK
