If you're looking for a powerhouse amp, look no further. This brute will drive anything you throw at it without ever breaking a sweat.
For fellow Polkies, I'm including a superb pair of River Cables XLR cables (3m). KRELL actually recommends using XLR cables whenever possible. However RCA cables also give a stellar performance.
Here's a link to the cables & a nice review on the amp. You can also Google plenty more great reviews of the amp.

I'm rating the amp an 8 out of 10 cosmetically simply due to it's age. Performance wise this baby really sings!!
Polkie price $1300 incl. insured shipping within US & Canada. If no takers, off to the 'gon at a higher price.
Any questions, shoot me a PM.

H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

LOL. This is a great amp, and works exceptionally well with the cables securely fastened, on a level surface. -

Great amp, without a doubt. But throwing in a sub is a bit over the top. :eek:
I've had some interest on the amp thru PM, but nothing set in stone yet.
