Krell KSA 200S Owners

I recently got a Krell KSA 200s  and have been trying to hook it up.

The bias and everything  seems fine but the blue led for Power seems to fluctuate.
It will stay on and the go off and come back on again.
As time passes the duration of it staying on increases but the time it stays off is stable and same as previous.
I listened carefully and sonically nothing changes while the led changes, could not have find why this is happening.
Did anyone have a similar experience previously?

If they still service them (and I think they do) their service department should be able to help you.

Have you considered that the amp consumes a lot of amperage and that your electrical circuit may not be able to handle it? That may account for the fluctuating light on the amp.

It does fluctuate even when there is no music playing.

I did call the repair centre, they did say they haven'tr seen it before but believe its safe to let it be given its not getting unusually hot and the sound is not being impacted.

A few years back I owned a Krell 200FPB stereo amp.  When powering up, lights in the room dimmed.  Checking the manual for power requirements. It turns out Krell recommends a 20 amp circuit.  Have a look in the manual
