I am somewhat ambivalent regarding Krell.
I have heard some very good value systems demo'ed with Krell amplification recently and some other overly expensive systems that totally fell flat.
Maybe part of the problem is that those who sell Krell are not always on top of their audiophile game and do not always set things up correctly or have golden ears? Or quality control issues maybe? I truly do not know.
These mixed results I've experienced though, whether just perception or not, have always tempered my enthusiasm for the line compared to some others that maintain a more sterling reputation in my eyes.
