I have own KRELL HT2 Pre-amp in the past and have had the KCT for about a year now. Both of these pre-amps are running quite hot (not warm). I have consulted with Krell and was told this is normal even when it is in idle position.
Krell KCT Preamp
I have had my KCT for several months now. I have it on the top shelf so it can breath. The left side is always hotter then hell. Is this normal? You can hold your hand on it, but it shure seems to be hotter then what you would think a stereo unit should be. Other owners please let me know what yours is like. Thanks, John
