I'm trying to decide between these two amps to power my Spendor S8e and Rega Apollo cd. Has anyone experienced these amps good or bad? Thanks in advance for your input.
I've heard from other owners of the 400xi that it runs hot....but who cares really. I'm more interested in the sound qualities, reliability, fit & finish, Krell customer service, etc AB
400xi is head and shoulders above I30 in fit & finish department. Krells housing is all made of bent and milled aluminium. Primare has only aluminum front panel - the rest is steel, powder coated black or silver. Krell looks great from all sides - Primare only from the front.
Disclaimer - I have nothing agains Primare. In fact - I have a complete Primare system in my living room (amp/dvd/tuner). But If only Krell offered a tuner, I would switch to Krell at a hartbeat.
