Steeped in Technology Found in BAT's Flagship Designs
On the surface, VK-23SE is Balanced Audio Technology entry-level solid-state preamplifier. Yet it's packed with much of the same technology found in the company's flagship solid-state and vacuum-tube preamplifiers. VK-23SE combines BAT's trademark high-current Unistage topology with the transformer-coupled outputs that anchor every BAT Special Edition preamplifier. They work in conjunction with a symmetrical N-channel Unistage gain block to provide BAT's hallmark performance. An easy-to-use programmable user interface and discrete 140-step shunt volume control are the same as those found on BAT's top-of-the-line REX II preamplifier – right down to the Vishay bulk foil resistors used in the volume-control circuit.

Fully Balanced, Unistage Topology, Proprietary Volume Control
Naturally, VK-23SE is fully balanced. The signal in VK-23SE is transmitted through only one gain stage, leaving it free of the negative artifacts attributable to both extremes of modern preamplifier design. Its circuit is based entirely on N-Channel MOSFET devices. VK-23SE offers another rare advantage in that identical devices – in identical circuit configuration – handle both sides of the audio waveform and ensure ultimate symmetry of the resulting signal. Employing the same sophisticated volume-control circuit as the REX II preamplifier, VK-23SE also boasts a proprietary electronic shunt volume attenuator that offers 140 steps of 0.5dB resolution for precise control.
