I appreciate all of the great, thoughtful responses. I have owned these KMA-160's for about 20 years! I do love the sound i have, but then again i don't have much to compare it to. The only thing i feel like it is lacking is the 3 dimensional soundstage....and you always think maybe there is "something better" out there. In addition it would be nice to try something different. You guys brought up brands that i was either not familiar with or had not considered. Now i am researching! Thank you. I was truly surprised that i did not get PASS LABS or old Krell recommendations. Someone mentioned that Kevin Voecks designed the Revel's with the Martin Logan's in mind....any recommendations on which ML mono's would be good? I considered going outside of my budget and looking at the ML 33's or ML33-H's but the repair cost and risk did not seem worth it. About in that same price range i think you could get a pair of Krell Evolution One's, any comments on those?
Mono blocks for Revel Salon 1’s recommendation?
I have been looking to upgrade my Krell KMA 160 mono blocks. I have a Krell KRC -HR and an Oppo Modwright player. I want to stay with mono blocks and thought I would stay in the late 90’s to 2010 range with something class A…but with all the new smaller amps out there etc, just wondering if I am missing something. Thought was I needed a high watt/high current mono to get the best out of the Revel’s but not sure looking at some of the newer stuff. Budget is 10k. Thanks in advance. I listen to mostly blues and rock.

@durangoat, yes I saw that, like half price. Read some of the reviews and seems like a great amp for the $. |
