The VAS Citation-Two tube mono block amplifier is a Harmon/Kardon Citation II design. This classic is reborn with top-of-the-line components, hand wiring and state-of-the-art transformer technology.
"There were a variety of interesting and outstanding Cayin products in the room including the A-88T integrated amplifier, the 265A 40 Watt Class A integrated and VAS Citation 2 mono-bloc amplifiers. These products offer great sound at unbelievably affordable prices, while the Citation-2 monos take retro-cred to new levels of audiophile drool-worthiness. They looked great - they sounded even better. Look for some really exciting products from Cayin and VAS, representing stunning value for the audiophile. The best of vintage sound combined with modern construction and componentry." - Richard Foster, Hi-Fi+, Issue 42
This new VAS Citation-2 will form the heart of a great system in two, three or multi-channel arrangements.
