Have any Infinity Kappa 9 owners tried the NAD S200 amplifier? I can see that this is not the best amp for these speakers in terms of performance, but it better than a typical amplifier that is designed to operate at least 4 ohms. This amplifier has some power. I don't need too much volume since...

I have a little bit Look more under the spoiler:

Yes it is. Piano black and rosewood сosts 1000$ more than oak.

Carpets on front necessary for damping. I think. By the way, Genesis G III made the same way. In fact these speakers, developed by Arnie Nudell, were true next generation of original Kappa 9. Not 9.1 & 9.2, IMHO

It will be look ugly because oak has large and relief structure. Уou need perfectly smooth surface for high gloos finish.

I made the mistake of buying K9 in black. Because it is easier to take care of a light oak, and light K9 that I saw on sale still look like new ones. All black speakers I saw in the photos have problems with the paintwork due of age (I see this on your photos too). I tried to hide the defects...

Now I live in Kiev and I was forced to leave my speakers in Donetsk, which now occupied by the russians. So big devices like Infiniti Kappa will not be easy to get through the front line, but I'm still going to take away the speakers from there. After that, I'll have a photos. I tried to run...

Early version of this speakers were without switch. In my kappa there is this switch. But I can't give up extended bass, because I'm used to it with Beyerdynamic headphones. In addition, I listen meatal and rock music, this sounded defective without a powerful bass.

I'd have bought Krell even without listening in my system. But I'm worried because of age and high temperatures of KSA. I don't think that there are specialists in my country who will correctly repair old Krell amplifier, if such a necessity arises. I know that the Gryphon amplifiers is very...

Has anyone tried these amplifiers? Which is better: Gryphon Callisto 2200 or Krell KSA 150? Characteristics of Callisto look good: 2 x 200Watt in 8 Ohm 2 x 400Watt in 4 Ohm 2 x 600Watt in 2 Ohm

Exactly. As well such sound cards have instrumental analog inputs with gain control. Input signal can be output on analog outputs without digital processing. This can be used to connect phono preamp, for example.

I would buy Krell or ML, and may be have done without preamp at all, because I have good external studio sound card with volume control and balanced output.

Sometimes there are very attractive offers. Like the Kappa 9 for $ 600. Sometimes people don't know the real price of his product... Or just want to sell quickly. I watched the prices here http://www.hifishark.com/search?q=krell+kst in Sold/Expired Listings Though I agree with the need KST...

I'm in a similar situation as with a low costs amplifier, but it is impossible to enjoy my K9... If I was going to buy an amplifier for 700$, I could add another 300 to price - is not very critical, I think, but I would have got a much better result.
