| Most reliable equipment manufacturers Krell. Have owned several pieces over the past ten years and never have had a problem with reliability. Built like a tank. I have to laugh at those who think Krell is not Class A. They must have other equipment limiting the capability of Krell. It... | |
| Opinions on Meitner MTR-101 Amps??? Rackon, I am late to the party on comments, but I owned the P6i preamp and 101 monos for several years. Had them as my second system up until I went hometheater and now wish I hadn't sold them to a friend. They are superb sounding amps with a lot ... | |
| WILSON WATT 5.1 I use the Transparent Reference interconnect and speaker cable with my Wilson 5.1's and Krell and have loved the sound. Try using the same brand cable throughout your system for best results and try a few different brands. Make sure all cables hav... | |
| Burn-in time Vs. Getting used to a sound I recently bought a Krell KPS-25sc to replace my 8 year old Theta equipment which served me well and I still highly respect. My point is the first 3 hours with the Krell unit were a nightmare. I had buyers remorse. No sound stage, brittle, compres... | |
| Top Audio Designers Of All Time? My vote goes to Dan D'Agostino; Dave Wilson; John Curl, Bill Firebaugh and that English chap at Meridian. | |
| New Dedicated Audio Room I built a dedicated listening room in my old house and if you want, I would be glad to send the plans and description of the room my contractor built. Give me a name and a FAX number and I will send it. It turned out excellent. Was very musical, d... | |

| Krell CD DSP opinions advise? Dickens, I never realized you responded to my original e-mail about the Krell DSP cd player. I noticed you bought that unit and wondered if it is working out in your system? You can always call Krell and see if an upgrade is available. I just upgr... | |
| Krell Amplifiers FPB? There are not that many FPB's for sale. I am selling my FPB300 because I upgraded to the 600FPB. I have listened to everything and I don't think anyone comes close to the quality of sound and build in the solid state area. Tubes are a different an... | |
| Krell CD DSP opinions advise? DICKENS, I OWNED THE KRELL UNIT YOU ARE CONSIDERING WITH THE ACRYLIC TOP AS YOU DESCRIBE AND DUMPED IT VERY SOON AFTER FOR THETA TRANSPORT AND D/A CONVERTER. UNLESS THAT UNIT'S SOFTWARE FOR THE D/A IS UPDATED, YOU WILL DO BETTER WITH SOMETHING ELS... | |
| Better B&W Matrix or Nautilus? Having had a pair of 801 Matrix III's for 5 years and selling them for the Wilson Watt/Puppies 5.1's before the Nautilus 801 arrived, I would have opted for the new B&W's. The Nautilus are superior in efficiency, dynamics and imaging over the ... |
