How's Krell KSA80B compare to the latest model?
I have owned a lot of Krell gear (although not the 80B) and as I went from one level to a newer one, the sound always improved.Richard 
which balanced preamp to recomend?
Used Krell KRC-HR. 
Review: Silent Audio Appolo A Interconnect
I too find the Silent Audio Appolo A interconnect to be one of the great reasonably priced audio products.I find it interesting that they sound so good in your system. I use them in a very high end (expensive) Krell/B&W system. The air and det... 
Recommend AC Power cord for my Krell FPB 200?????
I used to agree with Zieman, and I do agree with Dan D'Agostino on everthing EXCEPT the power cord issue. (In fact, Dan worked with me on the altering of my big B&W's.)I agree that it makes no sense that the last six feet should make any diffe... 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
My "non-TRL" SA14 is not very PC dependent. At lease not to my ears or the various cords that I have tried. I am sure that others feel differently. The rest of my system (all Krell) is very sensative to different PC's?Richard 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
This is one long thread! I read a lot of it, but have a question:Has anyone compared the SA14 to the SA14 TRL, side by side, keeping all variables (interconnects and power cord) the same?(I have the SA14 in a very large Krell/B&W system. The S...

Best Sounding In Walls
I once saw a system where the biggest Cello speakers where mounted in the wall. Since they are acoustic suspension, they do not need a large cabinet. Since one should still be able to get the speakers from either AR or dynaudio, you could, with bi... 
Krell KCT versus KRC-HR
Peter,I have heard others say similar things to what you are saying. A friend and dealer told me that after he changed to the KCT, that except for the improvements with CAST abilities, he prefered the KRC-HR. He recommended that since my system (a... 
Anyone heard Krell speaker cables
I have not heard the NEW Krell speaker cables.The ones that are no longer in production are the Path and the minipath.I am only familiar with the Path (I used for over 10 years) which are excellent but in my system were bettered by the XLO 5.Richard

Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT
Lugnut,What a great post. You really stayed on point and gave great advice. I understand exactly what you say about Linn detractors. I find the same thing with Krell products. I get tired of Krell bashers. I have tried many products, but find the ... 
Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT
Ken at Neuance is GREAT to deal with ......... plus his product really works (at least under my SACD player).Richard 
How does Krell KAV 400 XI compare to KAV 500i
Very good question.I would call or email Krell. I have always found them to be very honest.Richard 
Markering of CD Edges
I had the same question about using the Green on SACD's so I asked Mark Levinson, who makes SACD's.He recommended the use of the Green pen.Richard
