Difference between Krell HTS 1 & HTS 2


What exactly was wrong the original HTS 1? How did they fix it in the HTS 2? Does Krell offer an upgrade from a HTS 1 to HTS 2. I see on Krell's website they offer an upgrade from a HTS 2 to 7.1 for $1500. I just bought a HTS 1 (not even knowing about a HTS 2) cause I'm not interested in 7.1. Now I'm reading about lousy 2 channel sound in the HTS 1. Did I make a big mistake.

This is my first piece of what I would consider "high end" gear. So far it sounds good to me, but this is the beginning my system not the end and I feel my current equipment will not tell the whole story. Thanks in advance!

I just called Krell. This is what I learned. The main difference between the HTS 1 & HTS 2 besides the analog bypass is the HTS 2 uses a 17.25" wide chassis. Therfore allowing for an easier upgrade path from the HTS 2 to HTS 7.1. I was told they were deciding on a upgrade for the HTS 1 and would have a decision in a month.
I appreciate everyones responses. You guys are right. I just need to stop thinking about what else is out there and listen to what I have...Now should I get a Classe CA 201 or a Plinius SA 100 MKll. It never stops!!! Thanks Again
