Will my Krell drive a 2 ohm load?

Your Krell while good, isn't the typically pictured brute Krell that can drive a locomotive, or maybe a 2ohm load properly with conviction. 
I would say no to it driving that combined load well. The KSA150 type  Krell's would be better.

Thanks to all for the input.  I'm looking for a second one to drive the DWMs.  

Too much for the that particular  Krell.  A McIntosh MC-2300, 2500, or 2600 can drive a two ohm load as they are rated safely to .5 (half ohm).

I know, I had the 2300.  There wasn’t anything it couldn’t drive.

KSA or one of the Class A Krell Amps are what you are looking for....they will be a higher price point than one of the KAV amps which are part of their HT amps and processors series back in the day.

I have a classic KSA-80B driving my Apogee Scintilla One Ohm speakers.  That amp was made to do that, and does so superbly.  That said, I have recently ordered a pair of Vandersteen Model 3 Subwoofers to get the bottom octave and relieve the top end of the lower frequency power requirement.  I like the way the Sub 3's integrate with the main speakers.  When I get them installed I will be able to speak how they work.  Not sure about the KAV Krells.  Call the factory, they will be honest with you.  The KSA-100 or 150 would be good also.  I saw a pair of KSA-200's on audiogon and got me thinking.  Went with the Vndersteens instead.
