| Krell primer? I have had the FPB-450mcx amps for 3 yrs now and love them. the heat will grow as the volume is increased. One of the amps needed to be returned for repairs because it would over heat and shut down on it's own. It works perfect now. | |
| cable burn-in / system burn-in My computer was down for some time. I just got to read all the comments and respond.I guess what I was referring to would be described as (settling in). I do not know, scientifically, what is going on. I only know that after several days of being ... | |
| Why gold? I spent a winter in Elko, Nevada. You could toss anything outside over night to cryo it, then toss it in your freezer for a slow warm up :-) | |
| Why gold? Try using wire coat hangers. They are essentially free, just wiggle them around a bit to clean the connections and your good to go. Don't be fooled into believing you need to spend your hard earned money on gold and silver. You can use them for yo... | |

| From Novice - Krell 350Mcx vs Kav-2250 I had a FPB-400 stereo amp before I moved. after the move I changed to the mono FPB-450mcx amps because of the configuration of my new home, mono amps were the only option that would work.Since I didn't do an A-B test, it is really hard to say for... | |

| Mono blocks vs 2ch stereo single amp / Krell My recent research has indicated that the cast cable length has no adverse effect. So if I locate all my equipment on one side, and run longer lengths of cast cable to the mono amps, with my short speaker cables that would be less cost then replac... | |
| Mono blocks vs 2ch stereo single amp / Krell I have a gas fireplace in the center so I can't set it up with the amp in the center. I need to remove the fireplace or go to mono amps. A different location will not work in the house. I could raise the fireplace and locate the amp under it, but ... | |

I snuck into the Las Vegas T.H.E. show and listned to some really expensive systems but none put my system to shame, in fact very few sounded as good. I short you... | |
