Ar ref 5+ krell evo 402e I have an ARC Ref 5SE driving a Krell 403E and it's a very good combination. I also have ARC Ref 250 amps as well and depending on type of music, I switch back and forth between the two amps. The 402E will match very well with Ref 5- highly recomm... | |

This may sound a bit silly but why are so many Reference 10 is coming out as a replacement for the ref40. | |
Parasound JC-1 - Standby during playback? It's possible that when both amps are turned on the same time, the line voltage may drop due to high inrush current and cause the amps to go into standby. You can try turning on one amp at a time see if the problem goes away. | |
how good is the Krell HTS 7.1 pre-amp for 2ch? Hughp3,To get access to the jumper, you need to remove the cover. There is a small jumper on a small circuit board near the input connectors. Remove the jumper and the capacitor will be in the circuit to prevent dc voltage from getting into the am... | |
how good is the Krell HTS 7.1 pre-amp for 2ch? Why do you need to modify the amps if you use a tube preamp? If you are concerned about dc offset, the Krell has a jumper inside that will allow you to use a tube preamp. No modification is needed. I had the same amps. | |
Krell versus Pass Labs You should have the FPB 750 repaired and try it out with the Apogee. I had the FPB200 many years ago and it sounded so different from my FPB 450 that it was not even close. There is probably a bigger gap compare to the 750.As for the X600.5, you m... | |
Krell versus Pass Labs Rob,I have some experience with Krell, Pass labs and ARC Ref 5se.I borrowed a friend's Pass Lab X250.5 from a friend and I compared it to my Krell FPB 450 over a period of a week. The speakers were Revel Studio 1 and preamp was a Pass Lab X-1. The... | |
Krell preamp / Parasound amp power up issue Here's my guess:When the amp turns on, your AC line voltage sags for a very short period due to the inrush current which will cause a glitch with the Krell processor. Once the processor experiences a glitch, it can do strange things like being loc... | |
Pass Labs XP 30 VS Ayre KXR Pre Tonyptony,It was difficult to go back to hamburger after tasting filet mignon. It forced me to look for a new preamp and that was how I ended up with the Ref 5SE. The XP-10 is a very good for the price, especially at used price. | |
Pass Labs XP 30 VS Ayre KXR Pre The Ayre KXR is an excellent preamp and it was a preamp that I wanted very much. I had it my system for a few weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. I had alo considered getting a Pass XP-30 as an upgrade from my XP-10 but I was not able to demo th... | |
Complete Spectral system with Magico Q3 I visited Magico a few years and they use Spectral and Boulder equipment in their listening room. Personally, I like Spectral equipment as well. | |
HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 These kind of suggestions have been made to Jeffkad at another forum. I think he is looking for something that's plug and play. | |
Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps I use Audioquest Sky IC and Everest SC. | |
Audio Research Ref 5 and Krell amps Kenny,Are you still enjoying the Krell 403e? I picked one up a couple of weeks ago as well. It's a very good sounding amp but it sure puts out lots of heat. It's has smoother and fuller sound than my old FPB 450MCX. Did you consider replacing the ... |
