Anyone heard the Krell KCT Preamp?

..AMEN scoutdog..Amen............you preach the truth..and I can't agree more.

I for one have owned a lot of Krell equipment and must say I do love it. Do I think it is the best out their. NO but pretty dam close. All I can say is buy what you can afford. Cause let's face it, Krell equipment does not come cheap. Nor does any of those other brands out their. This is why I buy second hand Krell equipment. It may not be brand new when I buy it, but I save thousands of dollars and still have one beautiful sounding stero equipment for half the price. I just picked up a FPB 400 CX and now I am looking for the KCT pre-amp to go with it. I'm sure it's going to sound fantastic like all my other Krell equipment in the past.

Dancer: the combination of the KCY and 400cx is an optimal one and you will be pleased with the results. Please let us know how this turns out when you have the system in place.

I sold my FPB-250ms and my KRC-HR and I must say It was a good set up. I hope the FPB 400cx with the KCT will sound Better. We will see. I did love My 250ms tho.

I'm a fan of the MONO FPB amps, I have owned several stereo and MONO versions but never the 250m's in particular. To me the MONO amps are easily superior to the stereo amps, you can hear the difference right away back to back. Then again the "X" amps are another step forward too, I own the 750MCX amps now but the sweetheart of the group to me is the 450MCX amps, bang for the buck they are awesome. I think it is very hard to hear much difference between my 750's and the 450's and running them on 220Volts is a whole elevation in itself. Dan said all his amps where built and voiced on 220V and that is where they sound the best. Don't get me wrong I was very happy with my stereo amps, I wasn't complaining about anything but the MONO's were a step up, be it an expensive one.
