Hi Guys, Need some advice regarding a KSA 200b 1988 - 1989. The amp looks super clean but cant get info if its had the caps redone or not. I currently have a Accuphase A65, my question is what are the similarities in these two amps. Both are class A which I like does the krill do mid,s and highs good, Dynamics and bass are supposed to be outstanding with the Krell. The guy is asking $2400.00 for the amp.
My associate gear is;
Audio Research Ref 3
Arye QX 5 twenty dac
Melco N1ZH server
Dynaudio Special 25 speakers, 4 ohm 88db
WW Platinum IC,s , Crystal clear magnum opus SC,
PC Furutech S55 with Furutech 51 NCF plugs.
The Krell in a 4ohm load well have 400 watts vs 120 from the Accuphase which well or should open the speakers up in the soundstage, better dynamics.
Im currently very happy with the sound Im getting just thinking that extra HP would help.
Any thoughts and advice is appreciated.
With this amp only being in production for a year what were the issue with this model and cost to re cap, update transistors and so on.
According to Patrick at Krell he rarely see's these amps in for service or repair and are considered outstanding amps.
Regards,
Steven
