Wilson W/P 6 with Krell 350 MCX ?


I am a little gun shy about pulling the trigger on a pair of Wilson audio W/P 6 ($10,000) to go with my Krell 350mcx and krell KTC preamp. The Wilsons sound great in the store but it is a lot on Money! Tell me I am making the right move!

Thanks,

i tried a highly modified parasound 2200 mk2 (close sonically to the JC1) and i found it a bit too hi-fi, not musical enough.

switching to a SET amp reversed that relationship; not very hi-fi, but very musical...

i'd lose the krell but keep the WP6s. they're great speakers...
I respectfully disagree with cytocycle, who I know and have purchased equipment from. I have owned the 5.1's with my Krell 600C and 650MC mono's driven by the KPS-25SC. Krell is ruthlessly honest and if you have a weak link, you're going to hear it. If your front end CDP, turntable/Cartridge and cabling are up to snuff, it won't be bright. What sounds bright on a Krell/Wilson system is lousy recordings...and unfortunately there a lot's of those around. Good recordings sound incredible, bad one's sound worse. Try to demo them to be certain.
Rhyno: "lose the Krell but keep the WP6s"...they're great speakers but the Krells are...what exactly? Those amps, and that preamp, are among the very finest ever manufactured.

Duane: you'll do just fine with that combo! Don't worry one single bit.
depends what you like. if you like hi-fi, krell & WP6s are fine.

i like music. thus the rec.

(yes, i've heard the krell monsters, thus the rec).

The new CX series is much different than prior FPBs. The highs are much, much smoother--if anything, could be rolled off a hint.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the combo--though I prefer BAT tubes on the Wilsons.
