Anybody happy with high power Krell?

I've been strongly considering a higher power upgrade to my JRDG 9Ti's. One amp I haven't cosidered has been Krell. I once heard a Krell 600 fbp with a Krell CD player and Wilson Maxx speakers and it drove me from the room. Yet, I'm really intrigued by the thought of all that Class A power. There seem to be some decent used Krells around, and although I take reviews with a grai (or a bushel) of salt, 650 M monos are now "in" at TAS. I'd like to hear from people who are happy with Krell. As an aside, I'm also going to audition the Clayton M200-, another Class A power amp.

Thanks,
David

tim: don't be gettin' too excited. the osirises (now replaced in the avalon line by the sentinels) do weigh a half ton crated but are comprised of more than two "parts."

david: i don't think you'd be happy long-term with krell amps on your speakers. any of 'em. if class a intrigues you, i'd suggest goin' to a boulder 2060. 600 watts of pure class a power into 8, 4 or 2 ohms. i'm sure the guys at goodwin's highend can arrange an in-home demo.
