Krell FPB differences


I am trying to get an idea about SONIC differences between 200, 200c, 300, 300c, 300cx, 400cx, 350mcx amps.
I used to own the original 200 and I am curious how the sound evolved since 1998.
I am interested in opinions and experience of other FPB owners, no Krell bashers please
Thanks,

I went from a FPB300 to a FPB 400 cx. and the difference is not suttle. In my system the music is more involving and the improvments are across the board. Bass, mids, and the highs are all improved and makes me want to listen just that much more. Not that the 300 is bad but I could not imagine going back.

The 300 replaced a 100s I am a big fan of Krell amps imo they just sound right. I have had Levinson and Pass amps for a short time but I keep going back to the Krells.

By all means go with the latest cx amps even if you have to wait a little longer.

My experience going to a 400cx from a 300 is the 400 definately beats the 300 even with the stock power cord. I really dont know why Krell made the decision to use a captive cord. But a 1/2 hour with a file, wire cutters and a 20 amp iec. I am happy as a puppy with 2 tails, using my Synergistic Research DR squared.
