Krell Evo vs Evo-enhance


Hello

I am considering between krell evo402 and 402e; beside evo400 and evo400e mono blocks. I have not audited them so not sure which are the most significant differences. are the new E amps better than the older evo ones?

In addition, how do you compare the above krell evo with pass labs xa 100.5 or goldmund telos 200 or Perreaux 750 or dartzeel nhb108 mondel 1 power amp?

Many thanks

Thanks stanwal for letting me know. Have your listened to the amps and compared yourself? Because some audiophiles told me that is no significant different in the sound between them, and the price is so much higher :(
Thanks mate, but do you think he uses that amp as advertising campaign? because his references can be changed by time.

I also would like to ask if you can help me to point out the differences between the power amp evo402e and mono blocks evo400e, please?
thank you very very much mate Huntermusic for your inputs and review about the amp. you said you was using mono blocks, could you pls let me know which amps you have used and compared them to the Evo 402e? could you pls compare between the 402e and 400e mono blocks?
Hi Ben

Hi Mert

Thank you very very much for your advices and information mate. I am thinking to go for the 402e as well but the price here is killing me :(. I can support for s/h or ex-demo with great offer, cannot be brand new one.

At the moment I can find sth nice with good price like Perreaux prisma 750 and goldmund telos 200. Not sure they or the krell 402e will drive my mbl 121's better?

Many thanks
thank you very much for all of your comment. I now have another offer for Gryphon Encore power amp which 500wpc 8ohm and 1000wpc 4ohm. what do you think this with the krell evo402/e?
thanks gent for all of your inputs. I have moved house and already had internet last saturday.

now I am thinking to go for Krell Evo402 (can be upgraded to e in the future?) or Gryphon Encore or Perreaux Prisma 750 or Linn Klimax Solo 500.

could any one of you please compare them each with the krell 402/e for me?
sorry for this question but this is very important to me. I have a good offer for a pair of Krell Evo400 from USA. However I am worrying about tax I need to pay here in the UK - 30% of the total value.

The shop says they can send the amps which ever way I want to. So if any of you are in EU or particularly UK and has bought from the US or somewhere before, please advise what should I do.

In addition, the amps should be converted to use here in the UK. some audiophiles told me that would be problems like hum or sth, is that correct or the amps can work perfectly like ones made for the EU/UK market? please advise!

many many thanks!
Hi Jussy

Thanks for the infos and sorry for not replying as I was too busy and tired with my ladies, I has become a father just 2 days ago.

Regarding the Krell's, after so much consideration about voltage converter and shipping etc, I finally decided to buy a pair of Leema Acoustic Altair 4 monoblocks which I believe at least are as good as the Evo600/e. They made me very happy until now.

In addition, my Magico V2's will be home with me soon so I will have a great chance compare the V2's and MBL 121's.

Many thanks and best regards,

SR
