For what it is worth, I had a Plinius 8200 that I traded in to get a Krell 400. While I know some will be incredulous, the Krell was infinitely better, both in sound, and in features. I think the 400 is a big step up in musicality from the 300, and I have never really bought into the Plinius fanaticism. BTW, I use them with Totem speakers. Good luck.
