    Open Ethernet Ports

    Hello. I´ve used some like this before. But they don't stay in the socket. With every slightest movement they fall out. I think I'll use a normal plug. I can perhaps seal the cable entry with silicone.

    Krell Service

    I don't know whose interests you represent here.........but I'll give you an example that you might understand.. You bought a 1993 Porsche 911 in 2010. Now it won't start and you take the car to an authorized dealer. He says: I'll see what I can do. And then nothing happens for 1.5 years. How...

    Krell Service

    It is a KSA-200S. Everyone says: make sure you keep it alive because the new amps are worse and a lot of cheap parts are used. I have now requested the power amplifier and all parts back. Whether broken or repaired. I think I'll have to wait a few more months. By the way: I live in Germany. And...

    Krell Service

    Believe me, I contacted Bondi. And she answered too. The service that was supposed to take care of my amp was not happy. I was treated very badly. Krell gambled away his credit with me a long time ago. How long can it take to find a solution or to say: a repair is no longer possible or not worth...

    Krell KSA-200S Alternative

    I've already had my 200 twice with Mr. Kassel. The second time I got new transistors. After a short time, slight smoke signals from the device. Then a friend looked it up. It turned out that the soldering work was unclean and the solder threads had crossed, which led to weak short circuits...
