BAT VK-200 vs VK-220?

Rogue Magnum does not support balanced. The BAT I will have comes with RCA adapters. I read about that BAT amp works best with balanced preamps, but I also read that it would work good with other preamps. I bought BAT with the mind to replace Rogue in the near future. But if it works real good with Rogue I may keep it for a while.
My speaker is Tyler Linbrook Signature Systems. I have Linn AV5105, which is not bad, but with continual upgrades, I think I came to a point that Linn is outmatched and it is time to go.
I mostly listen to jazz, blues, and classicals, and ocasionally others -- hard/metal, rock, folk, country, new age, easy listening, ...

Ihcho which Signature system do you have? Ty custom built my previous speaker (Signature) and it had the 10" SEAS bass driver. Does yours have the 8" driver? I sold mine this past year and went with the new Decade line.

Rogue and BAT should go well with Ty's speakers. If not, then proceed with plan :)

It is a usual one piece LSS with 8" driver. Rogue says that Magnum 99 would work well with either balanced or unbalanced amp, so I hope it would work good with vk-200.

It would be hard to find a preamp that would surpass Magnum 99 at similar price. Bat VK-5i may be an option, as yours, but I am not sure VK-5i would make sonic improvement over Magnum 99, which I may need to explore later. Gee, then I almost get the same system as yours? Tyler speaker, BAT vk-200/vk-5? I have Arcam FMJ CD23. What do you have?

Yep we did have almost the same system...lol. I sold off my BAT gear last year. I bought Ty's D4's with a sub so I didn't need the power anymore. I have a Cayin 265Ai Class A integrated at 40wpc. This integrated is a sleeper trust me. My CDP is a Muse Model 9 Signature Generation 3.

I am on the powercord merry go round right now so this has been fun changing pc's out. Good to have some local buddies around that enjoy swapping pc's in and out of their systems also. One buddy called me last night and he just bought a VK200 again to play around with while he finds another big amp for his system. These damn VK200's seem to find their way to Lexington all the time...lol.
