Help Any Krell KRC Owners

Hi

Am considering getting a second hand Krell KRC preamp for around $2,200.

Have tested it and it seems OK. The only thing is the mute button doesn't work on the tape input/output. I still make mixed tapes and will use the tape input/output. The current owner has never used it and doesn't remember if the mute button is actually meant to mute the tape loop which is located separately from other inputs.

Does any KRC owner past or present know this?

Help much appreciated.

Thanks

Kim

I am not certain. It may be designed to work that way. I will ask a friend of mine that works for Krell.

Hi

Near last calls on this help message needed.

I have to make a decision soon as the current oner has received another offer.

So any Krell KRC owners or people in the know... Help...

Thanks

If I were you, I would hold out for an HR. It is much improved. You should be able to get one for around the same price and Krell no longer does updates to the KRC. I called my friend from Kell yesterday and he was out.

Thanks for your response Rwwear.

I hope you will be able to follow through with your friend on this.

Based on your feedback, I was able to get the price reduced to $1700 which I thought was a good deal. So I am still interested in getting the KRC preamp.

Look forward to hearing from you after you have spoken to your friend.

Thanks
