Is a Krell Standard upgraded to MKIII reliable

I purchased a Krell SACD Standard MKIII last year, and it has been working like a dream - the new Transport is fast and quiet - the new Display reflects the Disc Title, Artist and Track Title on SACDs, which is a nice feature. A great sounding & nice looking Disc Player that I found to be among the best in its price range ($6K). An SACD Standard upgraded to MKIII, is identical to new one, from what I understand.

Hi Tusa,
How many hours do you have on the cdp? Is yours a MKIII or a unit brought up to MKIII standards?
Thanks

Do a search on this subject. There are a couple treads that talk about this issue with the SACD Std. MK3 (III). Personally, since I had my unit upgraded last year it's been working with no problems at all... And sounds a LOT better than the Mk2 (II).

Hi,
I had many problems with my Mark II and sent it to Krell twice for service. The problems continued so I called Krell and complained. I was given a return authorization to return the player for Mark III upgrade.
The upgrade took six weeks,but it was worth the wait.
