| Wobbly XLR Connectors on Pass X250.8. What to do? If they are Nuetrik connectors there is a hole in the center used for locking the connector to the shell. Take a small flat blade screwdriver and turn it to the right about 90 degrees to lock. | |
| Mcintosh, Krell or Mark Lenvison Power amps Another Krell vote from me. I have a pair of KSA 250s powering my Divas. Been happy with them for about 25 years now. | |
| Krell KBX crossover. If your using an active crossover I assume you would just bypass the passive. | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? I recapped my 380S a couple of years ago. Not too difficult a job. It is a wonderful classic piece. | |
| Mark Levinson preamp no. 38 vs 38s vs 380 vs 380s I love my 380S. Since these units are getting old and the case has no ventilation, you may want to consider a recap. | |
| Recapping Krell FPB-Monoblocks - Need Advice If all you need is a recap any good technician should be able to do it. No need to send your equipment across the country. I would not operate the amps if they easily overheat to avoid additional damage. | |

| Krell KBX crossover. The KBX is a superb crossover. I am using one with my biamped Divas. Unfortunately, modifying the crossover frequency and slope is difficult since Krell has no documentation. I have information for the B&W 801 speaker so if you are able to ... | |
| Magnepan LRS compared to the .7 or the 1.7i ? Don't bother with the fuse and jumper. Just do a simple rewiring to bypass them both (no soldering required and easily reversible). I did this to my MMGs and it was worthwhile. | |
| Using Mark Levinson No. 380 preamp output simultaneously It's not a good idea because it unbalances the balanced signal. The single ended output is taken from the non-inverting balanced output. If the two phases of the balanced output see different loads they are no longer balanced. | |
| Using Mark Levinson No. 380 preamp output simultaneously You can use it but it is not ideal. The manual urges against it. A better solution is to use a splitter off the balanced output and an active balanced to single ended converter. | |
| Emotiva Repair What problem are you having with it? | |
| Levinson 380S with sub The record outs are only single ended. Levinson does not recommend using the preamp balanced and single ended outputs at the same time (you would un-balance the signal by applying a different load to each phase). | |
| Levinson 380S with sub You could use the record out but it would be a little cumbersome when changing inputs. | |
| Krell KSA 250 slow start board schematics I would hope the unit was recapped. Check the power resistors. |
