| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Thank you Schubert for your accurate description of Canada. FYI, we will have our audio show in Montreal this weekend (Place Bonaventure hotel). With current USD/CAD exchange rate, our american friends should come visit our great city.Daniel | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Hi George,Thanks for the invite, but I love my Canada. Well, if your gear sounds better ‘down under’, good for you guys and say hello to Crocodile Dundee 😎 on my behalf. We get 220 VAC coming in the electrical box on 3 wires with two phases ( 2x11... | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Gee, was hoping to get more feedback on my post...Probably not too many Krell owners who went for 220 VAC operation. I will probably start re-wiring with 10 gauge and keep the operation at 120 VAC and see where it brings me. Once I have a better u... | |
| Long distance between preamp and power amp I agree with randy-11, but please make sure your preamp is a true balanced design, so you will truly benefit from the amp replacement. Some preamp use chipsets to provide balanced connectivity without the noise reduction which a true balanced desi... | |
| Gold or Rhodium I have used both with great sound. The rhodium is somewhat more neutral to my ears. If you are going the GTX route, I would strongly suggest you also purchase the GTX aluminium backplate with 104 D stainless steel/carbon cover plate. This is what ... | |
| Acoustic Zen Silver Ref. II vs Absolute IC's I started using Acoustic Zen IC and speaker cables about 3 years ago. Started with AZ Silver Ref and ended up with the Absolute IC. Basically getting lower bass, increased mid/high frequency resolution and increased 3 D soundstage. Absolute no-bra... | |
| 2 Rel T7s or 1 Rel T9??? You will be better off with 2 smaller subs which will diminish low frequency room modes. For detailled explanations, read Floyd E. Toole 'Sound Reproduction'. | |
| Synergistic Research HFT are you using them? I have been using the HFT with significant improvements of my room acoustics. I purchased 2 boxes (5/box) and installed these devices as per SR instructions. Basically, it has transformed the acoustics of my dedicated audio room. Their acoustic ef... | |
| Krell KAS amplifier remote master slave conection Hello Apogee_paris,The best for you would be to contact Krell service department to get proper information. On the Krell FPB series, I use Midi cables. | |
| Krell Restoration I would suggest you ship these to Krell, even if you are not warm to the idea. They will replace your caps with most recent version available, check everything up and adjust power supply bias. A local tech can certainly replace the caps, not too s... | |
| Anybody tried Steve Blinn's Isoped footers? Hi Acman3,I placed an order for 8 mid-size Isopeds earlier this week for my speaker stands and unexpectedly received them yesterday. Since I was in 'new year eve mode', only had a few minutes of listening. Overall, I am getting incremental better ... | |
| Bryston 28bsst2 worthy upgrade from a krell fpb70? Audiolabyrinth,I've just ordered my SR Red fuses for my Krell monoblocks. Will take 2 weeks to come in. Will keep you posted on the results. | |
| Bryston 28bsst2 worthy upgrade from a krell fpb70? Hi Lecram,I had my 2 FPB 350 MCX recapped for $750/amp if I recall correctly. I've opened up the Krells a few times and I would only give that job to Krell factory and nobody else. There is a lot of boards to be taken apart and once caps are repla... | |
| Bryston 28bsst2 worthy upgrade from a krell fpb70? Audiolabyrinth,Wow! You bought really good stuff with the GTX-D R. I purchased 2 FP-15A R version for my wallplate and used the regular plastic cover plate. I looked at the GTX-D (R) but it was double the price of the FP. Remember I need 2 of them... | |
| Bryston 28bsst2 worthy upgrade from a krell fpb70? Audiolabyrinth,Your my kind of audiophile :-). I had the same issue asking Krell to install IEC inlet to the back of my monoblocks. Gave me the same reasons they gave you. So I decided to do the job myself. Basically you need some basic electronic... |
