Krell or Plinius?


Hello everyone!
Im building my system and looking for an integrated amp. I think ill stick with used equipment due to financial reasons. I would like U to advice me which way to go? Krell KAV-400xi or Plinius 9200? My speakers are Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand. I need a versatile system to play any kind of music. Which of those two would U recommend and why?

I had the old Plinius US rep modify it with new tranistors
for short money and I beleive it sounds better Than the 9200

This is just an opinion based on what I read, so take it for what it's worth.

I believe the Krell amps have the reputation of being more forward, some might say a little bright while Plinius amps are considered more laid back or forgiving. If I've got that wrong please let me know.

So you should consider what kind of a nudge your system needs. If you think that it's a little bright the Plinius might work better. If you think it's a little dull maybe the Krell.

Of course the only way to know for sure is to buy one of these amps and listen to it in your system for a while. Unfortunate but true.
