Mark Levinson is much more natural then any Krell I have heard. Krell are about slam and in your face and bright.

Krell is one of the few brands I have never owned, that says a lot, because I owned a ton of other brands.
If you have not auditioned the 436's, you have to check them out. They blew away the 336 when I compared them side to side. Much more open and airy, with more solid bass. I've listened to the Krell in a couple of different shops around the Bay Area and I'm not impressed (but then again, soundstage and imaging are more important to me than bass slam and extreem detail). It's all about personal taste...
I heard a 336 on B&W N802 speakers and I wished I could have bought it on the spot. Quite an amp IMO. I auditioned Krell here and there and agree with the guys' comments above that it is on the in-your-face side of things which I don't care for. Arthur
I think everybody thinks Krell is "in your face", bright, etc because of reading threads like this.

I've auditioned the 700cx, and it isn't remotely bright imho. Maybe past renditions were, but the new cx series is a different animal.

With B&Ws, i'd take the Krell...of course, i've always thought Levinson amps are boring (334, 336)
I have a Krell FPB 200c powering my Nautilus 804n speakers.NO BRIGHTNESS - nice smooth sound!!!
