    Preamps for Krell KST-100

    Thanks Shane for making an enquiry. Well yes the Rotel did indeed make a difference, but a bit too much in the treble. The Rotel pre is a entry level pre, and matching it up with the Krell KST is not entirely ideal taking in to consideration the calibre of the Krell. Though Rotel do make...

    NAD and QUEST Z

    The problem was not the Krell, but the Conrad Johnson pre amp. It does not suit the Krell. Looks like I need to get rid of the Con, and get something more suitable. The Conrad is a very good amp in its own right. It just slowed down the Krell.

    NAD and QUEST Z

    Been quite a while since I have been in here. Well Mt Quest Z panels have run in nicely. I managed to get a Krell KST 100 power amp, Conrad Johnson P14 pre amp.The Krell went dead; however it has had a complete refurbishment and one year guarantee. Problem is I found that I was completely...

    Conrad Johnson premier 14 Pre

    I hooked up the conrad Premier 14, and did not invert phase and played for a while then I changed the leads to the speakers around RED to BLACK etc, and noticed a change and an improvement. Only thing is, and this cannot be related to the CJ my Krell amp went off when I raised volume on a Pat...

    Conrad Johnson premier 14 Pre

    Ok, Guys, many thanks. My conrad is in place. I inverted the speaker cables at the speaker end, and sounds good. In fact I did not invert to begin with, and now the sound is more open. I will try the advice and change to using it at the amp end (inversion) and see what happens. With the CJ 14...

    Conrad Johnson premier 14 Pre

    Yes CJ sent me the manual in e mail. I will phase invert the cables at the speaker terminals, have a good listen using some good material that I use on a regular basis such as Patricide Barber's nightclub on CD, and jazz at the pawnshop on vinyl. After a few days I will change them back to...

    Audiolab 8000M COOKED

    Not going for the 300i now, seller has a kst 100 power amp, and I paid out a little extra. I can recall a visit to the Penta hifi shoe way back in the early nineties and hearing a system that was pushing a small pair of stand mount speakers. I was with a Hi-Fi enthusiast friend, and we noticed...

    Yes the pre was sitting on top of the offending power amp, but there is ventilation space. The other amps sit on top of each other with ventilation space. I have just seen a Krell KST100 for just under £1000. I am concidering this or a Croft Dakshini power amp.

    Are valve amps better suited to the Martin Logan Quest z speakers ?

    Audiolab 8000M COOKED

    For the last two days I kept hearing a clicking sound from my system. I thought it was the pre amp as it has muted frequently for a few seconds by itself. Then just click sounds, and no muting. I saw smoke and fire between the pre amp and the power amp directly underneath. Still thinking it wads...

    Patricia Barber

    ARTIST: Patricia Barber Title: Nightclub Label: Premonition Records Year: 2000 Genere: Jazz Five piece band. The first time I listened to this I was astonished by the black background. The detail is first class as is the recording. Transient attack, speed, everything. This CD will shine in...

    If I had the chance to change amps, I would go tube.

    Granite plinths to isolate

    Project RPM 10, and I am using the big isolation plinth as well. The slabs do help. I think the weakness here is the ATC)9 cartridge, it sounds hard at higher levels. My Spark Cayin CD player is great, very smooth sounding.
