Fans?

Wow, the placement of the input/output connectors is lame. With all that real estate on the back, you would think they could spread them out a bit.

Fans? No thanks.

How can you have "energy efficient" Class A amplifiers if they are truly Class A?

They are using a 'new' type of adaptive or sliding bias, which is claimed to maintain Class A operation by adjusting the output transistor bias in real time. Whether this is considered "true Class A" is likely to be debated!

 

[Stereophonic]

It seems like they want to follow the Classé fans system.

In a quiet room - NOISE !!

My old Soulution 710 had a big fan. You generally can't hear them at seated position. I don't like them though because they can collect a lot of dust.

I think the evo amps look better. I don't understand the silver lump in the front. Either it's black or it's silver but don't make it both.

They had recently hired an industrial designer from Emotiva.

4realz?

 

[puroagave]

emotiva may even look better and that's not a compliment. fwiw, the first krells all had fans, maybe they're regressing as a co. in more ways than one.

looks like cheap shite made in China.

I am starting to like the new Bully amps in comparison

 

[Elberoth]

4realz?

No, just joking

 

[FrantzM]

Tough Crowd ...

I am with the majority though : Both the New krell and the Bully Sound amps designs are misses...

 

[Phelonious Ponk]

2 X 175 watts = $7500

5 X 200 watts = $7500

they look a little like Ampzillas now.

i remember when Levinson tried fans- that didn't work either. Funny how Krell and Levinson's "day" seems so long ago.

 

[JackD201]

I think the EVOs are VERY good amps. These look shaky to me but that doesn't mean I think they'll be shaky in the sound department.

I have a pretty quiet room. I don't see myself having anything with fans except the HVAC anytime soon.
