Audiogon member Dave_b pretty much nailed the sound of this amp. I auditioned the 300i in a dealer showroom and completely agree with Dave's assessment. In addition to what Dave has already said I am impressed by the amp's ability to capture the ambivance of the recording. A slight trace of coldness and tone missing I didn't strike a deal right there and then though.
Krell 400xi vs s300i ----
Anyone had the chance to compare the new s300i to the 400xi? I was ready to go ahead and purchase the 300, but my local dealer decided to throw a wrench in my decision by telling me about a pretty good deal he has on a 400xi demo. Speakers will be Totem Forests. Thanks for any thoughts....
