Overview:

The VK-30 balanced line stage preamplifier is a very versatile vacuum tube model with two XLR and three RCA inputs. It accepts an internal phono module and remote control as two user options. This six-tube design incorporates next-generation Unistage® topology, dual-mono construction, custom oil capacitors, and Balanced Audio Technology’s new world-class user interface. Indeed, the VK-30 achieves the same current delivery as the legendary VK-5i to provide captivating musicality and superb authority.


The Balanced Audio Technology SIX-PAK is used in select phono stage as well as line stage preamplifiers.  When used, two SIX-PAK assemblies are installed in the product - one for each channel.  The SIX-PAK assembly itself consists of six paper-in-oil capacitors that are built into a dedicated module, which is then used for output coupling in a number of BAT designs. The benefit of using smaller value oil-capacitors and then stacking them is that the midrange and treble purity of the signal is preserved. The greater benefit is that the lower bass and mid-bass performance becomes more visceral, without any corresponding tradeoff in the balance of the frequency range.
