BAT VK-51 SE or McIntosh C200?


I am in the process of upgrading my system, one piece at a time, and am starting with the preamp. I think I've narrowed it down to these two preamps. Anyone have any advice? I listened to both the BAT 31SE and the Mac C2200 in my system, and preferred the MAC for its better high-level extension. I am currently using a Bryston 4B ST amp driving Dynaudio Confidence 5's. Thanks all!

I own a BAT 51SE. I had a 31SE in my system while my 50SE got upgraded to a 51SE.

The 51SE is more extended airy on both extremes. music flows with more ease. more demensional.

if you liked the 31se, and only complaint was high end extension, my opinion is you'll love the 51SE...

Good luck
