Krell FPB300 to FPB300c, changeable?


Hello,,

I own a Krell FPB300 and i would like to change the faceplate to the FPB300c? Do you think it is possible. I starting to not like the grey look and prefer the newer look. I was reading reviews and specs on the FPB300c, and it is the same as the FPB300. Same chassis and circuits except for the cast. Do yu think i can just change the faceplate instead of upgrading to the Krell FPB300c?

The folks at Krell are very friendly. and upgrades are available. I too own the fpb 300 non cast. I personaly like the look of the non cast version.it is my understanding that the 300's full update would make it a FPB400cx. If you are satisfied with the sound I dnt see the reason to make your amp look like something it is not. After it is about the sound.
I had an FPB-300 and sold it to go w/mono 350's. I looked into this for a potential buyer of my 300.

The folks @ Krell say that electronically it is upgradeable to CAST. However, the cosmetics (face plate) cannot be changed-sorry!
To upgrade the FPB300 to the FPB400cx, you would first have to upgrade to the FPB300c and then to the 400. It is not worth the money.
