i personally owned a Krell FPB-300 for awhile and liked it very much. it had a VERY slight
silvery top end, BUT it did not detract from the overall clean and 3-dimensional sound. the cosmetics were nice too- simple and elegant. but a friend had Pass Aleph amplifiers and they were a bit more organic sounding- a smoother top with no artifacts. we're talking small differences here, and for twice the price (retail).
the newest krell amp as well as the other newer amps are better than the alephs or FPB amps I have personally heard. but without very revealing speakers et.al. you're not going to hear huge differences amongst all these premium components.
