Krell Reliability?


I have heard a lot about many problems encountered with any Krell equipment.
Even their kps 25sc pre/CD Player and cx series arrived already badly built from its box.

Any comments?

Tomer,
I'm sorry to hear about your bad experiences with Krell, it seems to be unusual from what I can tell. As far as I go I've been posting on Audiogon for over 3 years and if you check my postings you'll see I certainly don't work for Krell I just had a positive experience with them. Right now I don't even own a Krell component, my system is SET based. I certainly didn't mean to offend you, but when a non-member posts something critical of a particular company without getting into much specifics it raises some red flags. Anyway I hope that Krell or your dealer takes care of all of your problems as they should. Best of luck to you.
I love my Krell 330iL Integrated. I have owned it for about 8 months and worked perfect. About two weeks ago it went south and developed a mind of its own. Krell issued a return authorization and I sent it off to the Krell hospital. They have had it for ten days now and I have not heard back yet. Will let you know the outcome.
Before I entered the world of tubes I owned a FPB-200c and a KRC 3 and had no issues at all. Everything worked the way it was supposed to, and customer service was great!!
1) Kav 300i- problem (changing) the front panel.
2) Krc 3- no problems (I had it for 2 month)
3) Krc-hr- fixed before I bought it.
4) Kav 250a- problem with the power button on the front panel.
5) Fpb 200c (first)- no problems at all.
6) Fpb 250mc- no problems at all.
7) Fpb 200c (second)- no problems at all.
8) Kps 25sc- 1. problem (changing) power supply, 2. happand 3 days ago, still don’t know what is the problem?
9) Fpb 400cx (first)- replace by Krell.
10) Fpb 400cx (second)- yesterday its turned off & one side is warmer then the other one.
11) Kps 25sc- (belong to the importer- now its in my home) problem with one side & cast cards.

I still like Krell's products.
