KRELL S300I

ABSOLUTE SOUND “Editor’s Choice Award” winning Krell S-300i integrated amplifier. Introduced in 2009, the Krell S-300i is heir to the ground-breaking Krell KAV-300i and KAV-400xi. The S-300i features Krell Current Mode technology, a massive 750VA toroidal transformer, 38,000 microfarads of storage capacitance, a theater throughput and an iPod connector. Power is rated at 150 watts into 8 ohms and 300 watts in 4 ohms. “For those who desire such lofty goods but never imagined they’d be able to afford anything wearing the Krell brand, the S-300i will come as a surprise and a delight.”–Brent Butterworth, SOUND & VISION.
The S-300i is the first Krell integrated amplifier to feature iPod connectivity and extends the award winning tradition of audiophile grade integrated amplifiers.
A low profile chassis fronted by an elegantly finished silver Aluminum front panel hints at the potent circuitry hidden within its walls. Small in stature but big in performance, the S-300i integrated amplifier develops 150 W into 8 Ohms and 300 W into 4 Ohms. Employing a massive 750 VA toroidal transformer and 38,000 microfarads of capacitance guarantees huge power capability for maximum dynamic impact. Both balanced and single-ended inputs are provided, and the Theater Throughput™ mode, developed by Krell, simplifies integration into home theater systems. Robust WBT binding posts provide superior loudspeaker cable termination. New for the S-300i is direct connection for all generations of Apple iPods /iPhones with complete control of the iPod functionality via the included remote control. Unique for the category, the S-300i taps audio from the fully differential output included in the internal DACs of iPods/iPhones and maintains this balanced signal throughout the circuitry.

The S-300i features the latest Krell Class A, direct coupled design, and fully balanced preamplifier circuitry for the lowest noise reproduction possible. Krell Current Mode provides unequaled bandwidth for the most revealing playback of today's high resolution music sources. Direct coupled circuitry eliminates impact-robbing capacitors from the signal path and an elegant, custom-machined level control adjusts volume.

The included solid aluminum remote control replicates all front panel options as well as providing control for a connected iPod/iPhone. RS-232 is also included for inclusion in advanced control systems. Shipping weight: 51 lbs. Used in a second system maybe 10 times like new I hardly ever used the system so I am selling the equipment. Should be a 10/10 but I'll rate it a 9/10 to be conservative. I am motivated to sell and will look at all reasonable offers. If You need to see pic's I will be happy to unpack the Amp and forward them. Thank You
