KRELL KRC or KRC3?


I'm searching for a Krell KRC-HR, but in the absence of a unit for sale in Europe, I'm inclined to buy a KRC instead. Do you guys believe I'll be making a good upgrade of my KRC3?

Thanks to anyone that might help me.

The KRC was a superior preamp to the KRC3. I preferred the KRC to the HR in my system as it was slightly warmer.

Hi Quintao,

I concur with Mick, and chose the KRC. When I was shopping for an "HR", I read several responses in favor of the KRC sounding warmer and otherwise.
Hi Metro04

Yeah goes to show that newer ain't necessarily better and that it is all system and taste dependent. I actually preferred it to a KCT as well which was more revealing of bad recordings. The KRC is the warmer sounding of the 3. Haven't heard the new Evolution ones but they cost a bomb and I fear diminishing marginal returns tend to set in here.
