I have a Krell KAV-250a, and I just love this thing!! I can't say enough about MIT 330 Shotgun interconnects, used with silver speaker cable like AudioTruth Dragon+, or even Music Metre "Silver". Nordost Red Dawn or SPM might be similar or better than the Music Metre, BUT WILL BE LEAN COMPARED TO THE DRAGON. I've tried my best to "sleigh the Dragon", but nothing is better for less. I GOT MINE USED FOR ULTRA CHEAP!! I don't have metal coned speakers, but I do have Maggies, as well as Dynaudio. The MIT 330 even sounds best with my headphones, and I've compared it to two different $2000+ interconnects for long periods in my system, AND IT BEAT THEM SENSELESS EVERY TIME, ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER INTERCONNECT OUT THERE!!
