Balanced Audio Technology is also pleased to introduce the stellar new VK-250 solid state power amplifier. With its compact and graceful industrial design, the VK-250 power amplifier becomes a perfect complement to Balanced Audio Technology's universally praised lineup of preamplifiers, from the VK-3i through the VK-51SE.

The elegant signal path follows the Balanced Audio Technology purist approach of using zero negative feedback to achieve the design goals of wide bandwidth and circuit linearity. Just as in BAT's newly introduced flagship VK-600, only two gain blocks are employed. Each gain stage incorporates exemplary Caddock loading resistors for a more transparent insight into the musical event. Come to Sound by Singer to audition this amp today!

VTL Siegfried

The Siegfried amplifier is a product of 5 years of intensive R&D, designing, testing, refining and listening. This 800-Watt Reference Monoblock Amplifier eliminates the continual tweaking and guesswork that usually comes with owning large tube amplifiers. The amplifier features an embedded logic-controlled automatic tube biasing circuit to ensure that Siegfried is running optimally at all times. Sound quality took a significant leap forward, due in part to the use of new precision-regulated power supplies. Benefits heard include increased dynamic headroom and a tighter, more tuneful bass. Check out the ultimate tube amplifier today!

The MB-450 Signature Monoblock Amplifier has evolved steadily over many years, and is a core model in VTL’s lineup. Known for its high power, high performance and ability to drive a wide range of speakers, the MB-450 now includes the “smart-tube” technology derived from VTL’s flagship Siegfried amplifier, as well as a sleek new look to match the well-received VTL Reference components.

MB-450 Signature
Utilizing the auto bias and fault-sensing technology first developed for the Siegfrieds, the revised Signature amps are now even easier to use and maintain. Parts upgrades, including portions of the regulated power supply utilized in the Reference VTL 800W Siegfried monoblocks, contribute to a significant improvement in sonic performance, with much improved bass punch and dynamics. “We have transformed the MB-450 into the thoroughly modern amplifier it needed to be,” said Luke Manley. “It now looks the part, and more importantly, sounds the part of a world-class power amplifier.” The new MB-450 is priced at $13500.

 


 


Burmester 956mk 2

The Burmester stereo power amplifier 956 MK 2 is a proud descendent of theirinternationally highly acclaimed family of power amps 911 and 909. The Burmester 909 has marked the pinnacle of audio amplification since 1990. Many of the insights gained in designing the 909 have influenced the concept of the 956 MK 2. Like the legendary 808 pre-amplifier the 956 MK 2 is of modular design, with the advantage that older models can easily be upgraded to the latest version.

Like all amplifiers from Burmester the 956 MK 2 is, of course, completely balanced and DC-coupled without any distorting capacitors in the signal path. Also, the 956 MK 2 sports the same cool-looking heat sinks which Dieter Burmester designed for his bigger amps.

RONDO is our new entry-level stereo system. In our model lineup it ranges below the very successful BASIC Line. Our main goal in designing the RONDO system was to build a true Burmester system with all the typical virtues at an affordable price. The RONDO system like all our products is of highest quality handcrafted in Germany.
The system consists of the integrated amplifier 051, the CD player 992, the tuner 993 and the floor-standing speakers 995. Of course, each component is also available individually.

Our goal has been to create a lower-priced stereo system that has still 100% the Burmester pedigree. It was achieved by employing clever design, using less expensive parts where it does not affect the sound quality and by producing higher quantities and, thus, taking advantage of economies of scale.
