Audio Research VS110 vs Bat KV-60


I like both of these amps I have heard them both but why are the arc s about $800 more on the used market can anyone tell me as I am in the middle of deciding between the two thanks.

Both are great amps, i have enjoyed both amps but tend to like the vs 110 a touch better as it seems to be a bit more neutral with a deeper soundstage and bass is fantastic. Good luck in your decision
I would say the ARC VS110 is more expensive on the used market because it is a more recent design. The VS110 was released in 2003, while the VK-60 was released in 1995. So the price difference is not so much a reflection of sonic differences or popularity, but rather a difference in age of the units.

Cheers,

can't tell you about either amps, but I have owned ARC VT-100 Mk 1/2/3 (yes, all 3 of them), SF Power 2/2SE/3, and BAT 150/75SE. The amp that is staying with me is 75SE, beating out VT-100 III by a mile and all of us were equally surprised given the high reputation of ARC.
