I'm also using the Krell 400xi & SACD Standard but with B&W N803. I have also heard these electronics with the new B&W 805S, Krell & Sonus Faber Monitors and all have sounded very, very good. I use (generic) pure-silver Balanced ICs with excellent results, a 10-AWG OFC power cord also helps with the 400xi.
