Krell, Krc-3, Krc, and Krc-Hr "What's your taste"


Gretting's Friends,
Iam in the transition of up-grading my pre amp. For the last 5 years i've owned a krc-3, I know for fact that the Krc-Hr, is superior, but what about the Krc?? compaired to the Krc-3 and Krc-Hr. Or should I just keep my Krc-3 and feel blessed. Also I have a Krell Kav 250 cd player looking to move up to a Kav-300. Here again would it be worth the trouble?? Let me know what you think! you guys have always been very helpful in the past, Thanks again.
regards

Hifimaniac,
Where you running your system in cast mode?
(by the way, my HR runs close to dead silent at full volume with two Krell amps into very efficient speakers.)
Also, one of the people who felt that the HR beat the KCT was a designer of audio systems that uses the KCT in cast mode in his own system.

The "HR" version is far better than the KRC. The KRC sounded almost exactly like it's predecessor, the KBL, but with remote control. The KRC-HR was a definite sonic improvement. Unless you will be able to use the cast technology, many feel the the KRC-HR is superior to the KCT.
