Krell KCT versus KRC-HR

I recently upgraded from FPB600 to FPB700CX. The 700CX is better in very aspect than the 600 so this was a good upgrade. Then I upgraded my KRC-HR to the KCT. The sound totally changed, even more when I used Cast.

In some aspects like bass slam the KRC-HR beats the KCT but the KCT is much more clear and has a higher resolution.

I still can not say which sound I prefer. Does anybody have experience with both preamps. The speakers I use are Wilson WP6, CD player is ML390S and cables are Transparent Super.

Peter,

I have heard others say similar things to what you are saying. A friend and dealer told me that after he changed to the KCT, that except for the improvements with CAST abilities, he prefered the KRC-HR. He recommended that since my system (actively biamped) can't use CAST, I should stick with the KRC-HR.

Are you running CAST?
