| Retractable room treatment Beavis- I'm not planning to move but I think you misunderstood the question(s). Thanks for responding. Riley- That looks like a great site that I had not seen before! Thanks!! | |
| BAT VK-60se vs Atma-Sphere M60 mkIII If you email Ralph he'll recommend some manufacturers that work well. I know Audiokinesis will be on his list and Duke is a super great guy. | |
| quiet hiss in backround? Thanks for the correction Macrojack. I'm SS these days.The idea is it's fairly simple. Perhaps you could comment on your experiences? | |
| quiet hiss in backround? On those speakers they'll do more than the Krell. They won't be as highly resolving as you're used to. That is what Krell does well. Soundstage should be just as good if not better.Tubes last a while but if you leave the amp on all the time they'l... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? I know the feeling.Sorry about that!Audio Research 110 would be a great match and unbeatable at the $'s.Yes I do think the Krell is a terrible match. Krell would be great with Revels, not Wilson.Go for it! You won't be dissapointed. | |
| quiet hiss in backround? I contacted a close friend who used to have the WP7's (I've only listened to WP8's in person). He said the Audio Research Ref 210 was head and shoulders the best combination he ever found for his WP7's. And he is someone who has literally tried ev... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? Also there is another member Dave_b: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr_memb.pl?vevol&1169177163&memb&zzDave_b that is a frequent forum contributor. He has a Krell 400 amp and Sophias. He might be a good person to search out to ask a... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? Well for starters I think 2 channel is the place to focus your attention if you are looking for great music reproduction. I keep my 2 channel and home theater separate. For HT I have a nice system comprised of Denon and B&W for home theater. P... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? I can understand your reluctance. It is a pain. The Salons are great. I also think you should have a quiet amp. That kind of thing drives me nuts!As for limited retail outlets I've all but quit looking at stuff in stores anyway. You lose 50% from ... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? It's easier to hate than love. Anything SS will immediately garner haters from tube lovers, and Krell seems to embody everything they hate about SS. I think that's because it is so SS. Krell just doesn't make any effort to take the edge off and ap... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? Me too. However there are probably 1-2 hiss/hum questions a day so maybe everyone is burnt out. You could try re-posting with a more grabbing title. Put Krell in the question and pose the title as a challenge. Like "My Krell hisses, help diagnose ... | |
| Best Speakers under USD 2,000 Second Hand Price Contact Duke at Audiokinesis. I think he has some trade ins available and his speakers are very tube friendly. | |
| b&k amps +dynaudio c2 speakers I have not heard the combination but a 200WPC SS amp should be a fine match. I've heard C2s with a 100WPC tube amp and they sounded good. However IMO they do benefit from more power preferably SS. | |
| quiet hiss in backround? You bet. One final note I don't think you have to spend more and may not even have to change from Krell. Contact them I bet they'll be able to help. If not there are other manufacturers out there that may solve your issue w/o increasing your costs... | |
| quiet hiss in backround? If that is the case another amp may be in the cards for you. |
