| Best sounding Krell ? Audiofeil is right. In fact, I believe the original Victrola captured the essence of the original performance best, no matter what the musical genre! Ah, the good old days:) | |
| BAT VK 600 M SE power conditioner You obviously have had some success and that's great! I had been through the ringer with any and all cables I could demo and or try at home over the years. I do not use MIT power conditioners either...tried them as well and found the sound diminis... | |
| wiring in series with a vertical bi-amp setup I'll bet you have two subwoofers in your car as well...right? | |
| BAT VK 600 M SE power conditioner First off, after 30years immersed in this addiction we call "High End Audio", I have NEVER had a component damaged from an electrical event...not even close! Secondly, all of the power conditioner equipment sold will change the sound of your syste... | |
| Best sounding Krell ? I would consult with Krell's technical division if you are seriously thinking about this idea. The Krell amps are push/pull - (neg/pos)...sending one channel to half of a speaker and the other channel to the other half would make no sense and be p... | |
| Krell KAV400 VS Musical Fidelity A300 A 3.2 A3.5 Dkzzzz, it is spelled Ayre and it is a fine product even though it's power rating is low.

| Mit oracle ma-x, ma, v1.2,v2.2,v2.1 Ic Call Joe Abrams at Equus audio...He da man and the prices are about half that of retail! | |
| Audio Research pre & Krell amps? ARC preamps work well with krell amps..I've used an LS25MK2, Ref 2 and Ref 3 with several Krell amps such as the FPB600, 400cx and 350mcx's. Bottom line is however, that you will not maximise either technology by mixing tubes and solid state. Prop... | |
| Totem Whatever subs you get, make sure you decouple them from the floor with a wood slab and anchor both the sub and slab with heavy brass footers...you will smile:) | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Albertporter, my two 8amp fuses are in my Krell 400xi and it has been about 40hrs of listening and 3 weeks since installation (always on standby of course). | |
| Pick your poison... B&K gear with the Dyn's of course...assuming the front end is musical and compatible! | |
