Krell Moves to new location

@invalid No. They are not back manufacturing. I don't know about the dealer network. Their website mentioned limited manufacturing starting back this year. Steve mentioned full manufacturing starting back next year. He did mention bringing back some old classics if I didn't misunderstand him. Steve responded to a post on Willie Barnett's Krell Audio Enthusiast Facebook page, I guess he'd answer stuff there.

Facebook, sure! When you're a manufacturer of high-end audio equipment, that's where the action is. Definitely.

What's Krell's official website again @bulldogger ?

@devinplombier Just got off the phone with Steve. Steve has the Krell servers. Website should be back up with THE ORIGINAL Krell telephone numbers in next couple of day. Steve owns ALL of the Krell assets, Krell still belongs to Kris D'Agostino. He's got the head tech for repair and the head of production working for him. Steve is running the Krell factory and that is what it is.  I don't think Dave Goodman is back, but he is advising. Steve said that Dave will have input if they need to make any "running changes" to production and that sort of thing for now.

I would say it is wise for anybody to use social media. A lot of the older companies do not know that. Facebook, YouTube and anything else that are methods of modern communication should absolutely be used. Dirac Live for example gave a discount but to get it you had to watch their social media feeds to know about the discount.

I purchased a used Krell KSA-i400 from High Performance Stereo, Steve's other business, today. It's at the Krell factory. Well Dave Goodman, the designer will be at the factory on Wednesday. Steve said that if I can wait till after then for shipping, he will have Dave Goodman look the amp over. Of course I said, %%%% yeah!

JF Bicking never had a valid claim on Krell. IMO, this guy is a joke. He showed up at probate court back when Kris had the company transferred to his possession WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY :D. He has zero ownership or managerial control over Krell and has never had any. He's only avenue might be to pursue some type of creditor action. But he's DONE, well was never started. He had no authority to even put up the website that he posted. Rumor has it, that the papers he submitted to the court looked like some type of ChatGPT stuff. That would make sense for a guy that had no attorney, right? :D . There is no additional court battle to establish his ownership. 

Devin I think you are trollling but many do have valid questions about the current state of Krell. I am just sharing what I know. 

@bulldogger  Thank you for the reassuring update.  I read your post with interest and I wanted to ask you about one sentence that i did not understand:

"Steve owns ALL of the Krell assets, Krell still belongs to Kris D'Agostino."

This sounds a little self contradictory.  What am I missing?

also, @bulldogger purchased, I quote, "a used Krell KSA-i400 from High Performance Stereo, Steve’s other business, today. It’s at the Krell factory."

High Performance Stereo is in Miami. Krell is in Connecticut. Does that mean High Performance Stereo is selling used gear out of the Krell factory?

I just interpret the signs as they appear. Taken together, they don’t paint a pretty picture, I am sorry.

If I had to hazard a guess, I’d say that if Krell ever resumes production it will start remaking old icons like KSA-100, decked out in audiophile wire, RCA connectors and $300 binding posts, and sell them for $25,000 or $30,000. They still own all the schematics and gerbers (one hopes), so restarting small-batch production is an absolute no-brainer (ie it really takes no brains at all). All the IP was buttoned down 45 years ago.
