Krell KAV-2250 power, against HALO JC-1
OK, thanks to my wife one more way of looking at this amp compared to the FPB amps. When we first moved into this house about a year ago we did not get all the wiring done right away. That being said, plugging the FPB amps into a (new) 15 amp circ... 
Krell KAV-2250 power, against HALO JC-1
I think the KAV 2250 is worthy of pairing with higher end preamps. I think it is an exceptional amp, you can pick one up used for about $2000 and I don't think there is anything in that price class that comes close. I have mine paired with a KRC-3... 
Krell KAV-2250 power, against HALO JC-1
I'm sorry but I cannot agree with Keis. I have and have had several high end amps, I have a KAV2250 and FPB750MCX amps. The KAV2250 is very powerful, clean and neutral, it is a very well engineered and solid amp. Pure class A all the way to the ou... 
Dan D'Agostino is back with a new line
It's funny I would think on this forum people would discuss what the amps sound like and I can tell you first hand they sound awesome! I don't know what I was expecting but they were a pleasant suprise, very few amps are in this class of musical a... 
Anyone heard the Krell KCT Preamp?
Thanks guys I just picked up one to replace my KRC-3 which I also like even though I know it's not the best...I also have FPB750MCX amps, one of the amps has failed so I'm sending them in and getting them tuned up too. I have had a ton of Krell eq... 
Review: Krell EVO 402/Evo202 Amplifier
I'm not sure I agree with that. I have watched the bias level go up in the steps as the volume goes up and it is a steady draw way above the level of the music as advertised. Pushing early MBL which take gobs of power I do not here anything collap... 
Krell FPB 300cx enough to drive B&W Nautilus 801?
OK, one of the FPB750MCX amps has failed and was drawing in excess of 15 amps from the wall at idle so I boxed them up for repair. I sold all my extra amps so now for this system the only extra amp I have lying around was a S300i. I set the little...

Review: Krell EVO 402/Evo202 Amplifier
The FBP series like my FPB750MCX's have a captive 10 gauge power cord. In talking with Dan I think he prefers the captive cord? I get the sense the cable companies put a lot of pressure on him with the cast and captive cords? Personally the less c... 
OPPO BDP95 anybody have any comments yet?
I like the discussion, I am still trying things with mine played some video last night from the USB actually played very well. Unfortunately with my current speakers it's hard for me to judge everything spatelly compared to my MBL's. I will say I ... 
Krell FPB 300cx enough to drive B&W Nautilus 801?
That is a great video!I would like to listen to some of his new stuff. I think I want to try a pair of the 801D's now? One thing I have noticed with the 750mcx's driving the 801N's is that they really don't get that warm. Compared to driving the M... 
Krell FPB 300cx enough to drive B&W Nautilus 801?
Well first step done, I did get the FPB750MCX amps yesterday and got them set up last night. I love em. With the 801N's they are so smooth I think they would be even smoother with the 801D? There is a little more air up there with the X amps, it's... 
Krell FPB 600 or 400cx?
Over the last two weekends I have spent some time listening to some McIntosh amps and pre-amps. I've been curious to learn more about the comparison between the Mac's, Pass amps and Krell. I'm definitely more familiar with and more used to the Kre... 
Krell Amps/preamp listeing levels -- room size
Richard,you obviously like the Krells my suggestion would be give a MONO pair a try, trust me you will love it. You will hear the difference right away, the sound-stage will open up more, a lot more depth and height too. I would just try the modra... 
Krell FPB 600 or 400cx?
I completely agree and know of this also, where you are going to see it in the FPB600-700 is driving say Soundlabs or Apogee speakers that are living below 2 ohms most of the time. There is no lack of power with this amp and don't read too much in...
