Krell KSA 250 vs Krell MDA 300

I considering purchasing one of these amps. Which is the better amp bass, mids, treble? I'm sure there are some Krell guys outthere.

But I owned the KSA-250 it was a great Amp. Had to have it fixed though by Krell. Most Krells of this vintage should have seen some recent repair time at Krell, if not better figure that into the cost. About $500 including shipping.

Very-very fast with huge dynamics and expansive soundstages. It's funny, years ago, while wearing SET goggles, I scoffed at Krell. Nowadays, with more need for power and slam I find myself drawn to these grand old behemoths. Peter

They run HOT. Their bass and high response is unparalleled. I drove these amps also with test square waveforms and the results were phenomenal down to 2 ohms. If the MDA-300s have never been serviced then they must be sent to Krell (or to www.theservicedepartmentct.com, which is cheaper and as good service by an ex-Krell service engineer) so that several capacitors be replaced asap. The caps WILL blow up eventually if they are not replaced.
