"Krell" is a buzzword

When I look at how the posts involving Krell deteriorate to the point of civil(actually not so civil) war, I have to say that "Krell" has become a buzzword. It seems as if you just have to mention the name, and the mobilization begins. Sooner or later the insults sink to the level that make the thread completely unrecognizable from the original question. I am more neutral than not on Krell(probably not many of us around). Used to dream about them in my bigger is better solid state days, but have since moved in other directions. Now I am a definite tubeophile, and don't even think about Krell. But, I don't say you cannot build a great system around their products. Just have to apply the right surrounding components. But don't you have to do that with many brands of amp? So, do you agree that Krell has become a buzzword, and why?

you are to be commended. I have a singular '63 Giulia Spider carrying a blueprinted 2-liter in a most tastefully modified show car body. Rapid transit, indeed! E dolce!

I believe greed is more than just taking from others, it's taking more than that what you need. Like it or not, greed is one of the foundation of investing. The market drives on greed a.k.a day traders for it to growth. Don't you agree?

OK, my faith is restored with some people the understanding of different character among seemingly similar products. Yeah, I own three Alfas, too. So couldn't resist getting in on this. Dug, I'm starting to have a 3l built for the GTV6, this is about the last step for Il Mostro. Sedon is a man of so much "character" that he doesn't stop with Alfas, he has a Pantera, too. Has character or is a character? ;-) Better slip into the Nomex, I'm sure someone will object to the car references on this dying thread. After all this isn't Alfa Digest!

hey jim, we can run but we can't hide, eh? :>) yule love that 3.0 in a gtwe6 - it works wonders in mine! ;~)

gino, better sign up to the alfa-digest if ya haven't already done so - it's a wealth of info

ok, here's minimal audio content: my daily driver gtwe6 (90 miles/day) doesn't even have a radio! my pantera has a 6-cd-changer w/cassette stereo - which i don't even know how to use - driving & audio don't mix - unless yer listening to the sound of a highly-tuned performance engine on boil... ;~)

regards, doug. ps - jim, don't forget about my '78 ducati or my buell... :>)

Hi Sedond and Jim. Three Alfas is truly impressive and am humbled with only two. My days of being my own mechanic in order to be able to afford commuting while indulging my eccentric taste in sports cars, are over. So I stick to the newer stuff, a 166 and a 156, between me and my wife - she was actually the one that led me towards Alfa and away from the 2-seaters that I used to have.
