krell foundation 4k vs. classe sigma ssp mkii

Hi, 

Has anyone compared the two side by side?  I've been running a Proceed AVP2+6
using the 6 channel input from my Oppo 105D for the newer HD audio formats.  Was
thinking on coming more current, but don't want to take a step backwards on sound
quality.  Note, I'm pairing this with a Proceed AMP5, and am aware some units pair
together better than others.  Any thoughts or comments?

TIA

I own the Sigma SSP Mk1(Same dacs) and very open sounding both in music and movies.  I wouldn't say it is 2 channel focused at the cost of movie playback.

Just because the ui is a touch screen doesn't mean to get the best out of it isn't difficult....Will need REW or peq points to do the speaker corrections.
Any Questions on the SSP Ask away.

Tbh i would suggest an installer to set the peq points measure once per channel
The eq menu is tricky, group and point enables per peq band
I run 2 configs
1 for movies in config 1
1 2ch full range stereo config with no sub
Assign a full range and config with lfe accordingly
I can help you configure this preamp tho, i am watching jumanji atm
