Anyone at home at Krell?


No one answers the phones, all the voice mailboxes are full, no one responds to emails. Anyone know what is going on?

I own Krell Gear, live in CT and have dropped and picked up gear for repair / service.  They have always been a bit slow to respond, I’ve found email was the best way to get an update or response.  The last time I visited their offices / manufacturing site was likely a couple years back.  Seemed to be a very lean crew but those that were at the company seemed to be passionate about Krell and seemed to have been with the company for quite awhile.  They had a resurgence with the release of the XD amps which are fantastic in my opinion, Walter Schofield joined the management team and seems like they were making quite a comeback.  Something happened and Walter ended up leaving the company, once that happened, seemed like they lost momentum.  Krell is an Iconic Brand, hopefully they’ll carve a path forward after Rondi’s passing (RIP).  She stepped back in to save the company after Private Equity had made a mess of things.  My local HiFi shop had a lifelong Krell employee on staff, from what he shared, Rondi stepped back in out of a passion, loyalty to the employee’s.  It will be really sad for the HiFi community if Krell fades away, was such a huge brand in the space back in the day.
