Anyone heard the Krell KCT Preamp?


I am in the market for a preamp and was wondering if anyone has had a chance to evaluate or audition this unit. Any owners care to comment? Also, there seems to be no reviews published that I can find thus far. I am also particularly interested in its CAST feature for mating with Krell Class A amps (high impedance output into low impedance input. Thanks in advance.

Hi Ronyund, curious with the sound of Elipsa with Fpb. What is ur pre and cable? Thank
I've used a KCR-3...not bad with my FPB750mcx's,I tried the KCT is the same set-up, WAY better,and EVEN better in CAST.but still prefer the EVO 222 (in CAST).Just my 2 cents
Hi, I read this whole thread, great forum!, I have a completly renewed 700cx amp done by Krell, just got it back in october, krell put up to date caps in it versus what was available in 2005, Krell says that this is the first and only Krell 700cx of its kind, that this amp will out perform other 700cx amps, the renewel consisted of more than a cap job, eany way, I have always run source direct to amp with astounding results with a tube cd-player, I have not owned a pre-amp since the early 90s!, I am considering getting a Krell Kct pre-amp and then sending it in to krell to get the latest soft ware and recaped to last with my new 700cx amp, I see rave reviews here concerning using cast, The thing is I own Taralabs zero gold interconnects, I do not believe cast can out perform this $15,000.00 a meter interconnect so I would use this i/c likly from source to pre-amp and give the cast from pre-amp to amp a spinn, Taralabs makes cast cables, nordost, transparent, who knows who else will make a customer cast cables?, after reading this thread, It appears that the Krell KCt pre-amp is a great match for the 700cx amp, so all of you have read what I have said here, what are your thoughts here?, Thankyou in advance.
