A good review indeed. The question now for prospective Krell owners is KAV400xi or S-300i?

I noticed that the S-300i is nearly 20kg in weight. Shocked

It is considered as heavy for an integrated amp.

Does the S-300i comes with Phono for turntables?

by **auronthas** on Sun Mar 08, 2009 6:10 pm

From the owner manual, there is phono input name (page 23) for turntables. Perhaps Norman Audio (M) can further confirm if there is physical built-in phono amp.

Norman Audio is currently away overseas for a business trip. I am sure he will respond when he returns. But that's at least 2 weeks away.

As it is with the Krell KAV-400xi, the S-300i is a line-only integrated amp.
You can always add an outboard phono stage of your choice for LP playback.

Thanks for covering me, WongKN.

Cheers,
