BAT Thoughts.....

i am a tube guy but my listening space get's too warm with the vk-55 tube amp. the vk-5i tube pre seems to be less of an issue. ever tried a tube pre/ss amp pairing? also, i will get another tube amp for the winter season and desire something with a bit more "creamy dreamy" presentation than the 55, which i found to be lacking in sound warmth (the unit itself could sure get warm!. the cary brand works for my ear but wondering if anyone has other thoughts?

My first really high-end system consisted of the following:

BAT VK-500 Amp
Two VK-60 Monoblock amps
BAT VK-50SE Preamp
BAT VK-D5SE

The temprature in my room would reach 100+ degrees within an hour or so. It was unbearable. To say that BAT gear runs hot is an understatement!
