Looking for a 7 channel power amp to replace Krell showcase 7
You said no fan, but, the one I would recommend does have a fan. However, it only runs when thermostatically required, which is not often. That amp is the Datasat RA7300. There are few 7 channel amps that will better your Krell. The ATI signature ... 
Best near wall high end speaker

ATI 2007 or ATI 1807
