The BAT Sweet Spot

[Amadave]

Over the weekend, I auditioned some BAT equipment and was very impressed. It was first time I experienced the "tube sound" and I am smitten. Not 100% sure, but I believe I listened to the VK-55 SE amp and the VK-33 SE preamp. I am considering an amp, preamp and phonostage.

For the BAT fans on the forum, what do you think is the sweet spot in their line up for each of these products? I am looking for the best value for the money not necessarily the absolute best performer.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
