Simply put, it didn't have any "meat on the bones". Sounded flat and had a grayish sound overall when compared to tube amps. No liquidity or "continuousness".
I have tried solid state a few times and don't think I will try anymore. I think I am firmly in the tube camp going forward. I gave it 120 hours to settle in. Maybe not enough...? |

Did you buy it or were you demoing it? What is the input impedance on the BAT amp (50Kohms like the current version VK-255SE)? It could be a mismatch with the Ref 3 perhaps?

I bought it and returned it. The impedance is 50k ohms which I had checked to make sure would be a good electrical match prior to purchase. Just not a good fit.
