Accuphase E-560 versus VAC Sigma 160i


Hello all. For those who have heard both of these fine integrated amplifiers, would you please briefly compare/contrast their sonic signatures? Please note, I am not asking for specific recommendations, simply listening impressions of each.

Many Thanks!

To bad no responses on this the whole year... These are two integrated amps now on my list. They are very different, one being tubed and one bing solid state, but I too wonder how they compare...

Tube meister, did you end up with either?
Agreed! From what i've read the VAC ranks near the best current intergrated amps(Alef-Dartzeel-Gryphon-Vitus-ect...). Many prefer the class A Luxman 590 over the Accuphase.
New improved E-560, the Accuphase E-600 should be good and worth checking out.
