    Bat Rex II monos

    Has anyone heard these amps?

    If anyone knows Randy (aka Chessman), can you ask him to come by and say hello. I would love his comments on the new BAT gear.

    re: Bat Rex II monos

    Mike you know I'm a BAT fan I've had 3 bat preamps. And 3 bat amps and a phonostage.
    All were great in their own way. I have owned vk60's in stereo and mono and vk75 and heard the original Rex monos several times and they are really nice amps. Didn't know there was a version 2 . A pair of Rex monos will set you back a few $$. I once ran 85db sensitive speakers to extreme levels in a big room with just a 60w stereo vk60. They seem to have way more power than they are rated. Oh and they are big and heavy!!!! If your in the $40k pricerange for amps you have to at least listen to them, before you buy .

    hey mike dont forget about these either,



    a quote i found from singer!!

    With its massive 50 lb output transformer and pure Class A tube triode configuration, the JL3 drives any transducers with ease, out finessing the best SET amps on high efficiency loudspeakers and bringing a level of musicality and authority to Magico Model 5s and Q5s and other Super Speakers that is unsurpassed by any other amp!
