Jc51373, that's the way I felt when I listened to MC402, that it sounded nice but was not really involving in absolute terms.
You are expecting the Krell to show the weakness of which component in your system?
Keep in mind that MC402 provides equal amounts of power into 8, 4 and 2 ohm loads - 400w/ch. But MC402 doesn't really get hot....it runs cool.
Krell doubles the power into 4 and doubles again into 2 ohms. This would be an advantage with the B&Ws.
Disadvantages with the big Krell - it's heavy, gets hot and draws a lot of power. You'll most likely need an amp stand.
