Intergrated Amps. Krell or Plinius

FWIW, I own a YBA Passion Integre and, for my money/tympanics, was the one I preferred over the ones mentioned, plus the ML and, would you believe?, the JRDG Concentra II. I could have lived very easily with the Concentra, but the Passion had just that: Passion. peace, warren

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.

Hi. Is your's the 8200mk1 or mk2? I have a 8200mk1 and heard the Krell 400 with my speaker, a Magneplanar 1.6. Yes, the 400 is better is ALL aspect except that the high is clearly rolled off.
