Bat Rex Mono Amps with Wilson Maxx II


I am currently using BAT VK-600SE with BAT Rex Preamp with Wilson Maxx IIs. I am considering upgrading to either the BAT Rex mono amps or the VK-655SE and would like to know if anyone has experience with either of these combos or can recommend any other amps for my Wilsons. Thanks.

Hi I used to have Maxx 2's (then Maxx 3's) and used the Maxx 2's with BAT VK150SE's and the Ayre MXR's

Before the 150SE's I had a VK60 and then a VK200.

I think you're loose some bass control with the tube amps. You'll gain some midrange purity...better decays...better imaging...typical SS vs tube differences. The BAT upgrades I did (VK50SE to 51SE, VK60 to VK75SE to VK150SE) where always worth while upgrades. I doubt you'll be dissappointed.

You really can't go wrong with your choices...one isn't right..one isn't wrong.

Honestly, I'd keep your BAT amps and try to upgrade to Maxx 3's. It's a significant step up. And if you buy used, shouldn't be a lot of money...
