Pre and Amp suggestions for B&W Nautilus 804?
Krell man,B&W speakers like a lot of power! My B&W's have a sensativity of 93dB. I use 1200 watts per channel into their 4 ohm load. 50 watts, might have been a little weak for those excellent speakers of yours.I am glad that you love what... 
one channel louder than the other. need help
I don't know your equipment, but when I have had that problem, it has always been that one lead of a balanced interconnect had a loose solder joint. 
Krell amp and front end with Tube cdp? anyone?
Before you hook any tube products directly into the FPB series, adjustments must be made to the amp. It can be done by the user. Call Krell.Also, 67, Krell does support it's older product well. Their service department is fabulous! But if a part i... 
Krell amp and front end with Tube cdp? anyone?
Caution:I recently talked with Dan D'Agostino of Krell fame and he told me that his biggest problem with public relations is that some of the older CD transport mechanisms are no longer available.I would check with Krell before I bought any older ... 
I have a confession to make
My wife married me knowing that I was a very sick man with the incurable audiophile addiction. It may be arrested, but never cured.She actually took a picture of one of my B&W800's and framed it so that I could take a picture if my "Immortal B... 
Bi-amp a two-way speaker makes sense?

Add, Change, or Delete? N801 , Krell , Wadia.....
Upgrade the 650's to 750's. 
Anyone heard of Soundstring cable?
I own one of their powercords. Since I feel that cables of all sorts are very system dependant, I would prefer not to comment here. If you want to email me with questions, I will do my best to answer.Richard 
Krell v. Theta
Both Krells have passthrough, I think. 
Woofer on Top Speakers
Eldartford -- GREAT ANSWER! 
Amp for Krell HTS2
Krell. 
Replacing sound proofing in cabniets
Sean,I stand corrected. With a port design, I wouldn't use fiberglass either.Richard 
Krell FPB-300 vs FPB-300c ??
With the 400, there was more done to the amp than just the addition of the cast. The sound is better, but how much is very debatable.I have elected to stay with the 300 and take advantage of an aftermarket PC, which you can't do with the 400 witho... 
Krell FPB-300 vs FPB-300c ??
Rwwear is correct. But psycologically the newer model may sound better.(it is a different story with the 400)
