| BAT VK 75SE vs 150SE's or maybe a VK600SE? Jafox, the actual comment was made in the BAT response to the review, not by RH. The response, signed by Victor, Steve and Geoff states:"Indeed, one can listen to our reference VK-150SE tube monoblocks and upon immediately switching to the VK-600S... | |

I'd bought a UNIverse from him a couple of months ago, and I LOVED it. I had to go and screw things up though.... | |
