Just speaking for myself, I never really liked the sound of Krell amps. To me, they all sounded horridly "solid state" in the worst sense of the word - dry, mechanical, listener fatigue inducing, you name it.

But the new D'Agostino amps sound wonderful, almost tube-like in their euphonic but accurate character with the heft and power of the best of solid state.

Certainly designers can change their idea of what sounds good to them - witness Bob Carver's transformation into a tube maven - but I was curious as to what others thought were the reasons that even folks who never liked Krell seem pretty unanimous in their praise for D'Agostino's new amps.
