How good is the Krell DVD Standard??

Nasaman-

My system is starting to take shape..
I just bought a Krell SACD mk 3 to go with my 400xi.
The Redbook audio is F'n pronominal.. (with a capital F)

I tried to buy a used Denon 3930CI used but Fedex destroyed
it and it got call tagged back to the sender. I also bought
a used Krell DVD Showcase at a steal to try out against my
Denon 2930CI. I can resell it easily if it's not as good
on video. I still plan to buy a 3930CI and a Krell DVD
Standard to try out in my system. Buying used here on
Audiogon works great since I can always resell whatever
doesn't work out for me... And trying new things is where
all the fun comes in this hobby.. :-)

"...I just bought a Krell SACD mk 3 to go with my 400xi...I also bought a used Krell DVD Showcase "

Well? how do you like them, any updates?

The Krell DVD Showcase has me speechless on Redbook.
I like it better *overall* than my Krell SACD mk3.

The Krell SACD mk3 is most detailed but much of my
Classic Rock Collection plays too brightly on the Krell
SACD.

The DVD Showcase is not nearly as detailed but it is
uber warm and musical.. I dare say it's the best Redbook
player I've had. All my Classic Rock music plays nicely.
The video quality is not as good as the Denon 2930CI.
More noise in the video and also "depth of field" is
lacking. I also notice that motion is not as smooth
as with the Denon. Still the Redbook alone makes the
Krell DVD Showcase a keeper for me. But to be clear,
the Denon 2930CI smokes the Krell DVD Showcase on video.

I ordered some warmish XLRs for the SACD Standard to see
if my opinion changes before I resell it. (I am using
RCA cables right now)

I will also buy a Krell DVD Standard when I find a steal
in "Black" just to see what it does for me.. I can always
resell it...

I also need to find another deal on a Denon 3930CI so I
can test that one out also... I love all the experimenting!

Tom, I'm just wondering if you're using factory AC power cable on the Krell?
