VTL 6.5 vs VTL 7.5


How much difference is there between these two preamps? Is the 7.5 quite a bit better sonicially than the 6.5?

Very few differences

(1) Output coupling caps are smaller on the 6.5
(2) 6.5 uses unshielded relays; 7.5’s are shielded
(3) Of course the 7.5’s power supply is physically separate.

Luke Manley claims that the 6.5 delivers 85% or more of the 7.5 sonics – very, very close.
