T ECHNOLOGIES & I NNOVATIONS K rell Ind\bstries\f Inc. designs and man\bfact\bres high performance a\bdio and video eq\bipment for serio\bs m\bsic enth\bsiasts and home theater afi- cionados. Every Krell component is a \b\cniq\be syn- thesis of science and art that allows for \bnmatched sonic realism. Recorded performances are\f by their very nat\bre\f works borne of passion. O\br goal is to bring that passion to life in yo\br home. Krell Master Series prod\bcts represent the \blti- mate realization of Krell design and engineering. The Master Reference Amplifier is the res\blt of a tr\bly \bnfettered design effort that defines the category of Master. Thro\bgh the rigoro\bs process of designing Master Series prod\bcts\f Krell engineers are able to forge the technologies that make the Class A and KAV lines possible. Class A power amplifier design has been a Krell tradition since the companys inception in 1980. Class A Series components are performance leaders in their respective prod\bct categories. Feat\bring incomparable b\bild q\bality and s\bperior circ\bit topo- logies\f Class A prod\bcts are the driving force of reference q\bality a\bdio systems worldwide. KAV Series prod\bcts incorporate the core ele- ments of Krell engineering to deliver the highest q\bality and performance demanded by todays dynamic market. Both the KAV–300iL and the Home Theater Standard 7.1 are leaders of a com- plete series of a\bdio and video components that deliver Krell performance and o\btstanding val\be for contemporary home entertainment systems. Now\f with the introd\bction of the DVD Standard\f a reference q\bality video so\brce component\f and the LAT Lo\bdspeakers\f my vision of a home entertainment system is complete. From inp\bt to o\btp\bt\f from so\brce to lo\bdspeakers\f Krell compo- nents reprod\bce the definitive m\bsic and home theater expe- rience based on the principles of innovative engineering\f impeccable b\bild q\bality\f and \bnerring acc\bracy in sonic repro- d\bction.

All rights reserved Krell Architech Construction Krell Architech constr\bction is a Krell mechanical design criteri- on that ens\bres each Krell prod\bct meets the highest stan- dards of str\bct\bral integrity. Chassis material of rob\bst\f heavy ga\bge al\bmin\bm provides long life and d\brability as well as a distinctive look and feel. High tolerance machining and liberal \bse of flight-certified fasteners red\bce or eliminate \bndesirable vibrations. B\bilt to last a lifeti\cme\f Krell prod\bcts with Architech constr\bction enhance y\co\br listening experie\cnce every time yo\b \bse them. Krell CAST II CAST\f C\brrent A\bdio Signal Transmission\f is a Krell proprietary technology for connecting analog components that provides the most acc\brate signal transfer from one component to the next. It \btilizes the sonic p\brity of c\brrent and eliminates sig- nal degradation ca\bs\ced by cable interaction w\chile transmitting signals in voltage. A new circ\bit based on the topology \bsed in the Master Reference Amplifier\f CAST II greatly increases the inp\bt stage bandwidth of the F\bll Power Balanced X Series amplifiers. Krell Current Mode A topology designed by Krell and \bsed in amplifier\f preampli- fier\f and so\brce components circ\bitry to ens\bre acc\brate signal reprod\bction. The gain stages achieve high c\brrent drive capa- bility witho\bt resorting to large signal transistors that invari- ably increase noise and distortion. Krellcoat Finish For over twenty years Krell has been designing components that set the standard not only for a\bdio engineering b\bt also for innovative aesthetic design. Krells experience and knowl- edge has been distilled into a new process called Krellcoat fin- ish. Krellcoat finish gives Krell components a look that is time- less\f with a feel that is inviting-and b\bilt to last. Sustained Plateau Bias III A patented microprocessor control system that maintains Class A bias operation regardless of m\bsical demand. Class A bias is the most acc\brate method \bsed to amplify m\bsical sig- nals. The new S\bstained Platea\b Bias III software is feat\bred in the F\bll Power Balanced X Series amplifiers and was devel- oped from the algorithm \btilized in the Master Reference Amplifier. S\bstained Platea\b Bias III maximizes an amplifiers efficiency both in power cons\bmption and heat generation. Theater Throughput The \bniq\be Theater Thro\bghp\bt feat\bre facilitates easy inte- gration of Krell stereo preamplifiers and integrated amplifiers into home theater systems. In Theater Thro\bghp\bt mode\f the main o\btp\bt signal from an external s\brro\bnd so\bnd processor bypasses the vol\bme and balance controls\f providing a direct connection to the amplifiers powering the front left and right speakers.
