VAC 160i, any experiences


Need opinions.

I am considering going back to a full function intergrated to use with my wilson sofias and was wondering if anyone has heard the VAC 160i. It has all the features that i am looking for, but not too sure how it will mate with the speakers.

Jgc,

Did you get the balanced inputs and if so, have you compared to the ssingle-end inputs?

Thanks,
Jim,

Thanks for the info! Have you rolled any of your input tubes yet? I rcvd my Vac 160I two weeks ago and have about 100 hours and another 100 hours to reach full break in.

It's a beautiful sounding amp with amazing body and weight to wood instruments and holographic imaging. You would think live performers are in your house.

My Avalon Ascendants are are quite efficient at 89db and my Vac 160i drives them very well.
I'm pushing a pair of Avalon Ascendants which are a 4 ohm load at 89 db sensitivity with no problems using the 4 ohm tap.
Guys,

Just wondering if any of you are using ceramic tube dampers and on which tube?

Thanks,
