 Lots of good... and not so good... memories...

At this point I don't see myself buying another deck, but selling a couple would make sense.

 I sent Victor a personal note on this not long ago.

Back in the '90s I was friends with the owner of Joule-Electra. He built competing products with BAT - OTL amps, line stages, and preamps. For awhile a local dealer, Stereo Unlimited, carried both brands and our audio club arranged a shoot-out one meeting. After demos with the same music those present (30-40) voted their preference. As I remember it was a tie.

But I'll admit that BAT was a better organized company, one reason I expect they sold more product.
