"For those with a raging fire burning in their pocket, VAC’s Phi Beta Beam Power Integrated Amplifier will tickle their ears and help keep that hole from burning any larger really fast. Yes, it’s expensive, but I’ve heard precious few amplifiers that sound this good. I’m a sucker for the manner in which tubes replicate music, and this amp has all those luxuriant qualities, yet it doesn’t really have a discernable sound of its own—it simply churns out, with great prowess, some of the sweetest music imaginable outside a live performance, full of life, nuance and vitality. It’s 110 watts of top-shelf intoxication." - JazzTimes on the VAC Phi Beta
"The sound was easily the Best at Show in my humble opinion." - StereoTimes on the VAC room, CES/THE Show 2004
