Internal Amp Wire: Can it be improved?


I just picked up a pair of Krell KMA 100's which are of a late 80's early 90's vintage. Being a tube fan, im quite impressed of the Krells on certain types of music. My question is, that the amp is wired internally with Monster wire. Has anyone ever rewired the internals of the amp, or have an opinion on if I would see an improvement if I did the Krells. (any suggestions on type or Brand of wiring would be appreciated) thx

If you do decide to alter the wiring, i would make a VALIANT effort at removing the original wiring as neatly and cleanly as possible. Label each wire individually, mark the direction that the wire was "flowing" and then make some type of chart to show what goes where. To make all of this a lot simpler, pick up a "wire labeling kit" from www.mcmelectronics.com BEFORE you start this or a similar project. While you may be able to alter the sonics more to your liking, keep in mind that the equipment was "voiced" with that specific wiring. Should you not like the wire that you install, you can now go back to the original design with minimal impact or loss of performance. You may find that changing only specific wires in certain areas are of benefit. Good luck and hope it all works out for you. Sean >
