| Krell S300i Volume Control Popping Noise Thanks. I suppose it could the the power line. I'd have to try another location to verify. I was told early production units had a loose ground, and wondered whether that could impact the volume. A UK forum contributor found the same issue, callin... | |
| Best Pre-Amp/Amp for Focal JMLab electra 920 In solid-state electronics, I should add that Ayre is another excellent choice. Sonically, I'd say it's somewhere between Musical Fidelity and Krell, and about as close as transistors come to a tube-like rendering of space. | |
| Best Pre-Amp/Amp for Focal JMLab electra 920 I have the Electra 915s, and I also listen mostly to classical. These are unusually transparent speakers at the price range, so good equipment and proper toe-in are helpful to avoid sounding hard. I have paired them with Rotel and PS Audio's HCA-2... | |

Furthermore, I have noticed many posts on Krell gear in general, at various forums, criticizing the products as edgy and bright. Indeed, that may have been the case w... | |
| Best Integrated amp for under 4k Krell KAV 300-iL if you want fast, clean, and transparent. The sound is the result of Krell's use of its current-mode gain topology, trickled down from its FBP line of amps and Current Tunnel preamp, in a now fully-balanced preamp section. Basical... | |
| Best amp to drive B&W N805's I had good success with Musical Fidelity's original A3cr pre and power combo, though it was driving the much cheaper B&W 602 bookshelves. The Musical Fidelity top-end is smooth and grain-free, which makes it a good match with the metal dome tw... |
