Krell EVO 302 or 302e


Has anyone heard these amps, either one? I am contemplating moving to one of these. I have run Pass Labs XA30.5 for some time and really like it, but always wondered about Krell. Any thoughts out there?

My speakers are not so power hungry and are powered fine with my 30 watts, just wondering if anyone can share comments on the sound of the Krell 302 in comparison to my amp or any others?

The New 302 E is much much better in ever way it has tons of technology from their flagship model including the ACT
cascading technologys which the 302 does not have. The New 302E sound better than the older 402. I have heard one to one at the audio store and it is no comparision it even doubles doen 300,600, 1200 wpc into 2 ohms and can be bought for around $9k with a good dealer .IMO the best amp out there under $10k on the planet.I heard the classe stuff and the new $8k Levenson not quite there this has a 3,000va transformer ,the levenson for instance 2-400s.
Do your home work .I am working to get one hopefully for Xmas 2011,hope my wife reads this !!
the original may double down but does not the the trickle down Evolution technologies which have the cast current driven stage the lesser models donot and much more natural sounding .
