| How to control long decay of B&W woofers ? 2nd thought:Did you change the polarity of the woofers when you removed the low pass filters? You should have.Richard | |
| How to control long decay of B&W woofers ? My set up is the same as yours, I think. I do use the Krell KBX that was set up by Krell especially for the 800's and includes the bass alignment filter. Unfortunately, they no longer make the unit and I don't think they will make the board (but y... | |
| Question Of Balance - The Moody Blues I have three versions of "Question", but none on vinyl as I sold it years ago.The original CD => worstMobile Fidelity and the SACD sound different and much better than the original, but I am not sure which I prefer."Question" is without questio... | |
| Older Cd Players vs. new ones Generally, new is better. Technology has improved a great deal. What used to cost thousand can now be achieved for hundreds.One example:I had an older Krell CD setup (all of my other electronics are Krell), but wanted to be able to play SACD's. I ... | |
| Krell KRC preamp question? My above list above is based on my personal observations (listening), a dealer and custom installer, and Krell themselves as I have a great relationship with one of their major employees.I have never heard before that the KRC2 was NOT at the botto... | |

| To Repair or Replace Technology has vastly improved with digital. I replace an older Krell with a much newer Marantz because it sounded so much better. I didn't even try the newer Krell digital because my son is in private school and I couldn't afford it even if I lik... | |
| A question about front-ported speakers I have personally had both front ported and acoustic suspension designed large speakers. BOTH have sounded much better out into the room.I don't know your room size, but you might reconsider "getting far away" from your speakers.Richard | |
| WADIA IPOD QUESTION ??? It will be interesting to hear how it sonically compares to the much more expensive Krell KID.Richard | |
| Actively bi-amping B&W Matrix 800's I have done just that. Biggest improvement that I have ever made to my system.First you need to find a KBX. Although, no longer made, they do occasionally come up used, and on this site. (they were about $4500 when production stopped)Any KBX will ... | |
| Review: Silent Audio Apollo-A & Apollo-C Interconnect I tried the venus cable a few years back to hookup my tunner and was surprised at how good it sounded, so.....I bought their Appollo A balanced and ended up using them throught my big KRELL system.I have no plans to look for any different cable, t... | |
| isolation It can help a lot!In my opinion, (as I don't use lp's), the CD player is the place to start.Contact http://www.neuanceaudio.comThe difference under my Marantz SA14 SACD player was monumental.Richard | |
