About Krell

This section describes the Krell Legacy, innovative Krell amplifier design and technol-

ogy, and defines key terms used in this reference.

The Krell Legacy

“I design every Krell component to set the standard

for workmanship, style, and performance.”

Dan D’Agostino

High-end audio is a demanding pursuit—an ongoing quest for excellence in

music reproduction that drives equipment manufacturers to strive for the absolute

in design and performance. With a keen understanding of this passionate drive,

Krell Industries, Inc., was founded in 1980.

Over the past 2-1/2 decades, Krell has earned a distinguished reputation for engi-

neering innovation and product excellence. The company’s history is replete with

product introductions that have deeply impacted the high-end audio industry.

The most discriminating audiophiles and product reviewers have consistently

recognized Krell components for standard-setting performance.

The Evolution One amplifier brings Krell design to a new level, setting a standard for

performance that will not soon be matched. The shear breadth of this amplifier’s

dynamic range capabilities conveys a startling realism that transcends previous

designs. Seemingly unlimited frequency response, combined with unerring accu-

racy and fortitude, extend a tradition that began with the first Krell amplifier — the

KSA-100.

The KSA –100 was the first high-power, high-current, true Class A biased stereo

power amplifier available to audiophiles. It was the first Krell product, and its

resounding success established Krell as an important new technological contrib-

utor to high-end audio.
