Krell Moves to new location

• I’m not sure if you knew that the president of Krell passed away suddenly in the summer.
• The company closed and the building was sold and bought by another company.
• That company is not allowed to do anything with the building, i.e. lease it out, etc. because the State of CT has a hold on it and its contents.
• No one can enter the building, it’s in the court’s hands.
• State attorneys are handling the situation.
• I spoke with the new owner of the building and he’s gotten many calls from others like you and has all their contact info and will call them when he finds out anything from the state.
• I gave him your name and number so that when things are settled, he can call you.

 

I’m sorry I don’t have better news for you. If I get any new information, I’ll let you know.

 

 

Warm regards,

Executive Director

That’s from the Executive Director of an Economic Development Corp.

Don't know how she got confused with me being a concerned customer and she doesn't have my number, but there ya go. Maybe sheds a little more light as to what's going on.

Wil Buhler, Managing Partner, JF Bicking & Co. from Krell Industries emailed me the following message:

“I wanted to clarify that the sale of the building was unrelated to Rondi’s passing. The transaction had already been in progress prior to her passing and coincidentally finalized afterward. Additionally, everyone's equipment remains intact, and the building sale had no impact on the lockout issue.

The lockout was strictly a matter tied to probate proceedings and obtaining the necessary legal permissions to reenter the premises. That process is nearing completion, and we anticipate resolving this matter very soon.

We are fully committed to returning everyone's equipment as quickly as possible and deeply appreciate your continued patience during this time.   Thank you for your understanding”.  

He also said “We will be putting out a more official press release at some point next week”.  

The official press release should provide us with more details.   thanks..

The lockout is still no excuse for not communicating with customers at all, even if the lockout made it impossible to give each customer specific information about their gear because of the lockout.. 

Shameful.

Hope to see krell come back i have some of thier amps and pre amps.i still enjoy them.best of luck.everyone needs a  legaldirective prior to end of life to avoid confusion.enjoy the music
