Krell KPS 20il....PLEASE HELP
The "LASER" is good for about 10 years of moderate to heavy use. It must be replaced. If Krell won't service it, see if they can sell you a new Laser assembly and find someone who can (not rocket science). 
Turntable set up- How easy is it
If you don't have steady nerves, patience, a good idea of what you are doing and some small needle nose pliers, things can go really bad.I tried to swap a cartridge (I did many times before) and broke a pin off a lead. These wires are SO SMALL tha... 
Silicon Under 60, Slim Pickings?
Pass Labs - INT-30A.Thirty watts/ch of class A silicon.P.S. My first receiver (Kenwood, circa 1969) had 25 watts/ch and I think it was damn musical!

What Did I Do Wrong?
Just a thought...Do the EL34s use the same voltage range (on the bias meter) as the KT-120s?

I don't know about your Onkyo, but mine sends the LF signal to the sub when I select "Stereo" mode. 
Onkyo TX-SR803 with MMGs - Amp upgrade YES or NO
The MMG is the only speaker I couldn't wait to get rid of.It sounded like it had a blanket thrown over it.I was using it with the "Carver Receiver" (in 1987) and had my mind blown when I heard some CJ "Synthesis" floorstanders.It was like I'd pull...

Decreasing performance
I don't doubt that cleaning corroded terminations will drastically improve the sound.But we can't overlook the "oil change" effect.I.E., my car always seems to run better after getting the oil changed (or a car wash).My system really sounds good w...
