| Cigarette Smoke Harm Solid State Unit ? I once bought a used pre amp that also heavily reaked as if the original owner was a chain smoker. I now always ask theenvironment that a unit was kept in to try to reduce thechance of buying something used like that again. I did manage to sell th... | |
| KAV250cd vs KPS 20i I have a KPS20i now and have had a 250cd about 2 years ago.I have not had them side by side though, but still thinkthe 20i is the better CD player. You can ask Krell onlineabout which one is more refined also. | |
| Boston VR 950 I have a Yamaha A-1 with the 970's and love them for video. I was drawn to them at my local dealer for theater use. I will say that they are very true to the source in the upper mid-fi arena. They are enjoyable and worth the money for video becaus... | |
| Dahlquist LP1 Crossover I got $225 for one a year ago, but it also had Tiffany upgraded RCA jacks. They are still very desirable for some systems as a cost effective way to add sub woofers and seperate amps. | |
| Help!My systems sound too bright A number of things come to mind without seeing the listening room. Accoustics are an esential component, and I have found some reasonable treatments @ Accousticsfirst.com. You also have cables that have to be chosen carefully, and as already state... | |
| Why Is Krell the a bad work??? No, it might not be everybody's cup of tea. I have been buying and selling audio for about 20 years, and have owned tube and solid state high end equipment. I bought my first Krell amp about 7 years ago and got hooked on the impact, dynamics and c... | |
| Best Matching Amps for B&Ws? Krell will kick those B&W's into gear. Try a 300i or KAV pre/amp combonation. It all depends on the type of sound you are looking for. I like the dynamics, impact and immediacey that Krell has with B&W's. I use a KRC-HR, 300S & 801's I... | |
| Best cables for Krell Components My system I have had for the last seven years is a KRC-HR, 300S, 20i, 801 III (North Creek xover), and entirely Purist Audio Design-Proteous cables. I have heard the comparisons with MIT, Transparent, etc. I just really enjoy the synergy of this s... | |
| Best Subwoofer for music and movies The Bag End Infra-18 sub was rated at the top in the 50 subwoofer shootout in Widescreen magazine. They rated for music, movies, build, etc. When you compare it to the price, you can't go wrong at $1500 new.....I bought 2 for my LFE. | |
| AC grounding It must be true in that my new Krell HTS (pre/proc) clearly states "Do not remove or bypass the ground pin on the end of the power cord. This could cause radio frequency interference to be introduced into your playback system". My new Krell KAV250... | |
| Why Is Krell Not Considered Hifi? No, it might not be everybody's cup of tea. I have been buying and selling audio for about 20 years, and have owned tube and solid state high end equipment. I bought my first Krell amp about 7 years ago and got hooked on the impact, dynamics and c... | |
| Need help with LP cartridge choice. I have a TNT w/JMW12 arm also, and I chose the Benz Micro Ruby 2 about a year ago. I love the match with my system in that it delivers great impact, dynamics, and tonal balance. I am using all Krell,B&W,PAD cables, but I have heard that the Ko... | |
| Any, good portable CD players? The old Optimus CD-3400 used to stir up controversey over it being as a good sounding transport compared to the likes of Levinson. Stereophile had mentioned it quite a few times, even seperate power supplies were sold for them. I also like the old... | |
| Best Dipole surround for $800? Urgent! You should check out the B&W DS6 which are THX certified for $600. I have them and they are very good. | |
| DLP projectors vs. Pio. Elite HD710 I have had the HD710 for about 4 months now and you couldn't pry it away from me. It is a great bang for the buck even though I paid almost $7500 (delivered). I built a two tier viewing theater in my lower level and unless you can spend maybe thre... |
