Hi I did do nothing to my FPB700CX. It just works fine. The LS-25 or 26 will also work without problems. The Krell will for sure not go broken.
Well I know there is a lot of anti Krell crowd but their power amps are world class. I had Classe, Levinson, Pass, Chord ad many more. Nothing even comes close to the FPB700CX. The new Krells sound very sweet in the midrange and have a very controlled bass. Also it is just very enjoyable to listen. Also their CD players and preamps are very very good. I had KCT, KPS28C, FPB700CX together and the sound is close to perfect. But the Wadia 581 + Audio research Ref3 is still a little better tha KCT + KPS28C.
Other amplifiers are good as well but to my taste I prefer Krell.
