In what ways is Mark Levinson better than Krell?

.
Nsgarch,
.
My point was that there has been a ton of Levinsons sold over the years and it is quite logical that there should be a good number up for sale on a regular basis.
.
I think quite highly of the older Levinson Amps. I own a 23.5 and 27.5 and I love them both. I prefer the 23.5 over the 27.5.
.
I did not enjoy the 300 series and have not listened to the 400 series nor their latest iterations.
.
I have never enjoyed any Krell amp that I have heard. For my taste, they are too bright. They have great dynamics and slam, but they chase me out of the room after a while.

wschofield, Thanks for your post....well said and good to hear your enthusiasm for what is going on currently at Levinson. Best of luck with the future of the company.
.
A service question for you: Do you still service older Levinsons (like my 27.5) and if so how does one go about sending a unit in for repair. Do you still have technicians that are experienced with the older Amps ?

For musicality, I would go for older Krell. I have had listened to KAV series over KSA series (KSA 80B) and I think KSA is very much better in every way...and even pure class A. Haven't heard the FPB series. For Mark Levinson, the sound much more like older Krell, IMHO

The best ML amp I have ever heard was and are my current
25 watt Class A monoblocks. The ML2 from 1977 to I believe
1986. John Curl and Tom Colangelo designed the amp that made
Mark Levinson famous.

I do agree 100 % with the ML CEO that we all have different listening tastes and that there are many good manufactures out there who are producing good sounding products.

Listen to your own ears because there are
so many bogus reviews out there, written simply because of
advertising $$$$.

one don't see too many 27.5 or 23.5 models for sale...yes, they regularly come up bot not that often compared to the newer models it seems to me....they are classics as is the krell ksa 50 and the threshold sa3

Their products aren't named from the plot of a classic 1950s SciFi film but they could easily star in the re-make.
