Guys allot of good info. in this thread, when I spoke with Ken he also mentioned the same and had allot of respect for the Kraft line and said to me that if I was not going to use CAT product then it would be his choice. When I was speaking with him I actually owned Andra 2's paired up with Pass X600.5 monos. I was making some changes and actually bought MBL 101E's to replace my Avalon Isis speakers in my designated room but the Isis were not sold when my MBL's arrived and did not want to disturb the set-up. I decided to swap out the Andra's from my other set-up and break-in the MBL's, long story short the MBL's stayed in that spot. I wanted a amp to match up with them, hence purchasing a pair of JL3 Sig. MK2 mono's, during our conversations Ken did not speak highly of Pass, if you know Ken then you know how long I listened.
Reading the above info. now, if I would have only known all this back then that I would have to be a soldering pro etc. I would never have purchased them. Moving these arround so no to damage them or your self do to the weight and size for me is just too much. I had other issues too which meant they needed to go back to Ken and in the end I just got frustrated and decided to sell them.
I have never heard Kraft, when I look at pics and the little bit of info. regarding them I'll admit I'm a bit confused with; the finish and actual product line it's self.
First off the finish, I see on the site a pretty industrial pro looking finish, then I see some pics of a chrome look (which I like) and then a mat aluminum look. What is the finish.
Secondly, it's a solid state design correct, class "A"
Do the amps run warm, hot .....
The pre-amp is tube, solid state .....
Connections are they XLR or RCA and preference what is it.
My speakers are MBL 101E's, what would you recommend to be the ultimate fit, I need mono's due to my configuration and the space is fairly large. Prior to getting the CAT which is now sold and I'm looking for the right amp to end my amp quest I find my set-ups to be a tube pre-amp and solid state mono blocks.
Right now I'm learning more about Karan product and specifically the 1200's and look foward to hearing in my set-up in the near future.
