Krell Showcase 5 - Distortion

I’m making a few changes in my system and recently picked up a Krell Showcase processor and showcase 5 channel amp.

I got it cheap but it was due to its condition. The processor works great but the amp has distortion on all channels. When we tested channel 1 and 2 had the most distortion but we were able to get two of the other channels going with no distortion.

When I brought it home the first two are the same but the other channels are better but high frequencies are distorted.


I was wondering if there was anyone local in the Dallas area to help replace the capacitors? Only if they wanted to with no pressure if it goes south. I rather take my chances rather than me trying.

Finally if anyone can think of anything else to try other then sending it to Krell. I tried both balanced and rca cables
