Fully remote preamp/ CD transport/ D/A converter. Cast System
The KPS 25sc Krell Playback System provides advanced sound and convenient operaton for digital and analog playback from today's current compact disc format and is designed to be upgraded to address future formats.
It combines three carefully matched audio components into a unified whole: a professional-grade compact disc reading mechanism, an advanced digital processor/digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and a reference analog preamplifier.
Audiophiles and music lovers understand and embrace this concept for three compelling reasons: performance, simplicity, and upgradability. The performance benefits of the KPS 25sc integration are reduced noise and distortion, improved signal transfer and timing, and better linearity.
These three reasons are key to the musical qualities that define advanced sound reproduction: Revelation of musical detail, authentic tonality and timbre, lifelike imaging, and dynamic impact.
Highlights Direct coupled, high bias, pure Class A, complementary analog circuits offer traditional Krell sound quality for unsurpassed playback. High-resolution volume control has over 65,000 steps of level control, providing more precision than is possible with conventional potentiometers.
This advanced volume control employs a discrete R-2R resistive ladder configuration, with steps selected by CMOS analog switches that are microprocessor managed to facilitate adjustable taper and control speed. Sophisticated switching using digital logic to operate networks of gold contact relays insures crisp, positive switching, with absolute sonic integrity maintained.
