Amplifier Decision - Audio Research vs Krell


Hi all,

I wanted to ask all the experts out here at Audiogon for their opinion before I make a purchase.

I have the big task of deciding to buy one of two amps:

Audio Research Classic 120 (both monoblocks of course)

or the

Krell KSA-250

I am torn between the two! Both are the same price and both are working perfect.

I have a Paragon 12 pre-amp. My speakers are Acoustic Research AR-7, but will probably change in the future.

I'd appreciate opinions and suggestions.

I agree with S7horton; your speaker selection will play a big part in the amp you want. If you get Apogees or Theil CS5s you'll want the Krell, but otherwise you may prefer the tubes for a more efficient speaker.
