BAT VK5i 6 pack capacitor upgrade

Go to the soniccraft.com website and contact Jeff for his advice on soniccap capacitors for the BAT preamps in place of the 6-pak. I did this mod myself and he will ship overseas. Please note I did not compare this to a 6-pak mod, but you should be very pleased.

Thanks Oldears, did you hear improvement ? In what terms ? Did you lose anything from the previous sound ? Are you happy with BAT's bass right now ?

Thanks and Regards,
Babis.

I had the six pack upgrade done on my vkp-5, befor doing so I talked to Victor at BAT about the improvement`s and he ensured me I would notice the upgrade, Victor was right it opened the soundstage wider and I was hearing thing`s I had not heard befor digging more stuff out of the groove`s.

I must admit it most certainly was worth it. Give Victor a call at Bat and discuss your concern`s with him the great thing with BAT is their customer service it`s one of the best. David

The capacitors from Sonic Craft cost about $80 + shpg. The 3.3mF caps lowered the output impedance & increased the bass slam while the 0.33 caps gave better detail in the highs. Jeff recommends to keep the existing 1mF oil caps in the system so as not to change the overall nature of the sound. Call him for advice as to what changes in sound YOU wish to make.
