Upgrade BAT VK-55 to VK-55SE? Worth it?


I have had a VK-55 for about 3 years now. Excellent amp that I have not been able to better no matter how hard I try. I am really happy with it, but have been considering having BAT upgrade it to the 55SE. $2K seems pretty pricey for the upgrade. I have never heard the 55SE in person, so it is hard to decide if it would be a worthy upgrade. Has anyone compared the two directly? Is there a significant difference, or a small incremental gain in performance?

+1 to what Stereo5 says.

I would think it would be less than $2000 extra to sell your VK-55 and buy a used VK-55SE, if that is the route you want to go.
