bookself for Krell 300i?

A friend of mine tried the 300i with his Totem Model One Signatures and did not like the match at all. I have Model Ones as well and found it to be a tricky speaker to match an amp with (Tried with Classe with no luck, settled with Sim Audio Moon I-5). I have heard some Krell gear hooked up to ProAc speakers which sounded pretty good.

I also have the krell 300i. I demoed it with the Totem Ones and it was a very bad match, harsh, bright and lean. I listened to the Kell with Platinum Trios (floorstanding). They were much better, but I would be leary of Platinum because I think they went out of business. Another bad match was with the loved Joseph Audios. Stay away. I ended up with Aerial Acoustics Model 6s.They are great with the Krell. You might want to try their monitors. I think the Dynaudios might be a good match, but I havnt' heard their monitors. Cables, interconnects and speaker placement will be important. If you have any questions, email me.

The best local shop here carries Krell and Dynaudio and heartily endorses the combination. I had a pair of the 1.1's for a week at home connected to the Krell KAV-500 - I thought they sounded great.
