| My old system vs my new Are you sure it's not 2.9 or 3.1 better than your old system :)? | |
| Can Krell KSA250 be connected with both RCA & XLR? Make your own. Just buy some solid guage wire and bend it to a U shape and remove the insulation. I think something like a 10 AWG may work. | |
| Mono blocks vs 2ch stereo single amp / Krell Go with the monoblocks. I had compared Krell FPB 250M to the FPB 200 and the monoblocks were much better. I am now using three 350 MCX. I don't know much it would cost to remodel the fireplace to fit the 400 but it might be cheaper to get the mono... | |
| Krell KCT Preamp Does Not Power Up Most the newer Krell products have chip that detects the voltage frequency and it will not work if the frequency is different. Since you bought the unit in the USA, the chip will be looking for 60 Hz and NZ has 50 Hz so it won't work. You can cont... | |
| Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE Thanks for everyone's input on the 861SE. I got a short demo of it last week and I am considering it. I have had a few Wadia players and enjoyed everyone of them. I hope their business situation gets better and be around for a while. My understand... | |
| Krell FPB350MCX Amps Gillar,Thanks for sharing info on the 350 Mcx. I currently have three 250M and considering upgrading to the 350 MCx. My preamp is a Pass X1 so I won't get the benefit of CAST. I am pretty happy with the X1 but maybe I might have to look into a KCT... | |
| Two questions about balanced operation ... Raquel,Here's what I think:1. balanced system work by canceling noise between + and - phase so not having earth should not reduce the effect. 2. I have not opened a MC coil but I view it as a transformer with the outputs being neither ground or po... | |
| Krell/BMW model designations? I think the owner of Krell is a BWM fan. I read somewhere that he owns a M5. | |
| Can I use a tube preamp w/ a Krell 400mx amp? The DC blocking caps are already installed in the Krell amps. The jumpers near the input connectors have to be removed in order for the caps to be in use. It's take only a few minutes to do it yourself and it's very easy.Rich | |
| Problems with U.S. Customs - Watch Out The FDA is checking for laser safety compliance with the cd player. The FCC is looking for EMI/RFI compliance since a CD player is considered as a digial device. Many high end CD players do not comply.Rich | |
| EAD 8000 & 8800 I have a Pass X1 and an EAD 8000. For 2 channel music, the X1 is much better than the 8000. The 8000 is a little bright and not as refined as the X1. The 8000 is pretty good for HT. I also had the EAD Signature and its 2 channel performance is bet... | |
| Revel Studio Discussion- Everything Studio Here I measured the binding post with a caliper last night and it measures 8 mm in diameter so it's a litte larger than 1/4 inch. | |
| Krell KSA-250 Power Amp Internal Fuse The fuse rating for 110V is usually twice that of 220V since the current draw @ 110 will is twice. If you don't change the fuse, it may prematurely blow if you play at loud volume but it won't harm the amp.Rich | |
| Revel Studio Discussion- Everything Studio Here Vikingboy,I have not tried using phantom center. I set the crossover at around 40-45 Hz. The Studio can go down to about mid 30's in the low end. I would suggest using the Revel cd that comes with the B15 to find the optimal crossover for your roo... | |
| Revel Studio Discussion- Everything Studio Here Vikingboy,I would recommend the Revel Embrace for rears especially for movie. I have a 7.1 system setup that is very similar to your setup. The main speakers are grey Studios, center is Voice, side is Embrace and rear is M20 and sub is B15. I also... |
