Krell Power Consumption


Hi,

I'm a bit new to ultra high end. I'm considering a Krell Evolution 402. One thing that jumps out at me is the power consumption in standby. The manual says it draws over 300 watts in stand by and recommends that you leave it on all the time. 300 watts 24/7. Good grief. Is this bogus or just the price you pay for a serious amplifier?

thanks for any advise.

I run the Evo 403 and yep, it probably eats more than that! It is always at least warm to the touch and after serious listening can be frankly hot.

It sounds really good though!
