Angeboten wird „Balanced Audio Technology VK-90 Preamplifier“ von Balanced Audio Technology als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Röhren-Vorverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 7590848715 endet am 03.09.2026 um 17:10 Uhr.
The VK-90 is BAT’s flagship single-chassis tube preamp, renowned for leveraging reference-grade technology at half the cost of the REX 3. At €10,000, this listing sits almost exactly on the median of €9,990 from eight recent EUR comparables, making it a fair price rather than a bargain or an overreach. It is squarely within the typical used range of €8,561 to €13,987, so there is no urgent deal pressure, but the value is solid for a current asking price.
This preamp delivers the full BAT signature: deep bass control, lush midrange, and exceptional linearity, all in a 19kg chassis that feels built for decades. If this is original-owner condition with the power cord and remote, it’s a worthwhile buy for anyone seeking flagship performance without the REX 3’s €27,500 price tag. No caveats apply at this fair price unless the listing reveals missing accessories or questionable tube history.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
