Headphones powered by a preamp output? I am not sure that you have been given a complete answer.With Krell preamps, there is plenty of power to drive most headphones. To use the XLR output, you will need an adapter. I am not sure if this is the best way to go, but it is a possibility.R... | |
Better Way To Biamp? I use the Krell FPB300 for the high end and the KSA300S for the bass.If you can find a used KBX, Krell charges $400 for the customized board, installed. (although you can intall the board yourself, I would NOT recommend it, as they will do a check... | |
Best Krell Amp? Service and products are great!Buy the best and newest that you can afford.Richard | |
Better Way To Biamp? The power is the same with passive and active biamping.Active biamping will produce the best results, but will require speaker alterations + an electronic crossover.My suggestion would be to contact Krell on doing this with their KBX crossover. Fo... | |
What about power cords to mate Krell 650MC amps? If you can find a pair of the Pure Note Sigma PC's, your search will be over. I use them on my Krell FPB amps and the improvement was not slight.I have an actively biamped system, and when I tried them, on just one, not only was the quality of tha... | |
Active Crossover Recommendations If you want the best: Get the Krell KBX | |
Integrated for B&W 805 Signatures These are great speakers. Some consider them to the best of the original Nautilus speaker line. That said, get the best that you can afford.I would suggest solid state. (B&W usually works best with SS.)You might consider the Krell 400xi. You w... | |

Cello Amati - any good? NOThey project a huge soundstage! Mark Levinson once told me that it was is prefered speaker, because of that.They can be mounted against the wall, but shouldn't. They should be placed into the room, like most speakers.Within reason, the bigger th... | |
Cello Amati - any good? I use to own a pair of double Amati's. .. and loved them.My only disappointment was that they imaged poorly. (This was corrected when two pair were put into the Strat. Grand Master cabinets. That solved the problem but cost a fortune!I discovered ... | |
Power Cord for Digital I have the original SA-14 and find that changing power cords makes little or no difference. If you find one that makes a sizable difference, please let us know.Richard | |
Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT If the entire unit were triangular, then three would be more stable, but, since my SACD player is not inside a stand, any pressure to the unsupported corners would tilt the unit. | |
Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT I was instructed by the maker to place a heavy weight on the platform for several days before setting it up. I used a lot of books.I then placed it on my wooden stand. I used the screw in points (obviously face up). I then placed my SACD player on... |
