I owned the original KRC.It was excellent.I used it with a 200S,along with an MD 10,and a Studio.Now I eliminated the transport,dac and the pre.Replaced by the 20iL.The sound is incredible.I like it much more than with the original set up.So if your going to purchase a 20 il.I recommend you do so.Run it directly to the amp.It's all you will need.Trust me.Good luck.
Krell KPS-20i/L or 20i w/KRC-HR
Has anyone heard the KPS-20i/L into a Krell amp (300S). I would think that this is the best way to go, but Krell says the KRC-HR is a better pre amp. Still wouldn't it be better to not have a pre amp with a one source system?
