Krell Evo 302 or Burmester 956 mk2
The speakers are Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage. Krell and Sf are combination often used, but I guess that Burmester would not be a missmatch either. Like I wrote, I am more concern aboutt Krell amp and Burmester pre amp combination. So, again, any i...

Thank you, Apdoc2004. I see that you have had the Pass ams as well? Do you know how many watts Burmester produce in A classs? Do you use any other Burmester gear in your system?

Upgrade from Rotel RCD-1072

I have the SF Cremona Auditors as well,and I use Pathos Inpol 2 integrated hybrid amp,with 45wpc on 8 ohms and 75 wpc on 4ohm in A class. Had my doubts also too, because prior to Pathos I used the Krell integrated amp, with loads of power. But,I h...
