SS preamp to give wormth & bloom to Krell KSA amp
I have had a few SS pre amps and tube pre amps over the last 5 years such as Sima P5, Krell KRC-3, Pass Alpha P, Bryston SP1, Sonic Frontiers Line 2 & 3 and by far the best match and compliment to my Krell FPB amp(s) has been the Ayre K1. They... 
Standby Mode in Krell FPB power amps
Standbye appears to be a soft turn on. When I flip the breaker at the back of the amp I do get the surge current. If I use the front panel button or remote the amp does not have this same surge. In standbye the amp is partially powered up and draw... 
Krell FPB-300 vs FPB-300c ??

Levinson Amp Experts, I need your help please
