cooling my Krell monoblocks

What is heatsink tape made of? If it is conductive you really should let Krell place it, otherwise you could be one hairball away from tradgedy.

Not to worry Mechans - I wouldn't dare try it as a DIY! LOL! I have absolutely no idea what the heatsink tape is made of . . . guess that would be another question for Krell.

I believe the "Krell" name comes from a science fiction movie.

You Guys are KILLING me.

The Krell were a mythical race in the '50s SciFi classic
'Forbidden Planet'.
Just my opin, but one of the most literate / intelligent well paced SciFi flicks ever.
A great cast including a very young Ann Francis among many others, including Leslie Nielsen in an early, serious role.

And, from the Audiophile standpoint an incredibly interesting soundtrack with all Theramin music/effects. (pre MOOG by several decades) Must hear on good system, but you already knew THAT.

The Krell were the whole point of that film – they became so technologically advanced that they created a machine that could make their thoughts turn into reality – while they obviously created the machine with the best of intentions – to completely eliminate any suffering or pain in their society … when they turned the machine on it took only one day to completely destroy their civilization and Krell race was then extinct. The movie was written in the 50’s – the beginning of the nuclear age – and it was meant to serve as a warning that our relentless pursuit of science and technological advancement could have dire consequences. It also carried a more profound message regarding the inherently evil and corrupt nature of power – the Krell achieved ultimate power only to have it result in their complete annihilation

i am scared of my amp now...
