Owner’s Reference
A note from Dan D’Agostino
Thank you for your pd~chase of a Full Power Balanced amplifier. This component has been designed to exceed all other amplifier products in ultimate performance, musicality, and overall durability. I am sure that it will give you many years of superior performance. Some of the features that r[Lake this Full
Power Balanced amplifier unique include:
Kreil Current ModeTM: This advanced circuit topology is a KRELL
introduction to the audio industry and yields a far greater degree of speed
and stage presence than is possible through conventional technologies’.
Fully Regula-~ed Output Stage: One of the most obvious causes of musicat corruption in an amplifier is voltage and current drop in the output stage. While the large capacitive banks used by other manufacturers are marginally effective with current drop, capacitors cannot compensate for voltage drop.
~, Full Power Balanced amplifier’s regulated output stage and power supply is
impervious to these forms of corruption. Current and voltage remain constant under all operating conditions.
Balanced Amplifier Design: Your Full Power Balanced amplifier incorporates completely balanced circuit topology from input to output, maintaining the integrity of the audio signal and exercising greater speaker control by means of its balanced, push-pull relationship with the speaker drivers.
Class A Operation: Class A is the only linear operating state in electronics. Your Full Power Balanced amplifier operates in Class A to its full rated power to provide the most accurate and richly detailed musical experience possible.
Sustained Plateau Bias Ii~: Sustained Plateau Bias II
TM
is a KRELL patented process that enables your amplifier to play all music (up to full rated power) in Class A, yet greatly reduce the heat dissipation and energy
consumption associated with conventional Class A designs. Sustained

Introduction
To obtain the best performance from your Full Power Balanced amplifier, careful
’attention should be paid to its placement, installation, and operation. A thorough
understanding of these details will help insure satisfactory operation and long
life for the Full Power Balanced amplifier and related system components.
This Owner’s Reference is divided into several sections, each designed to
perform a different function. As you read through the Owner’s Reference you
will become better acquainted with the features and functions that make the Full
Power Balanced amplifiers a superb value..A Troubleshooting section is included with solutions to potential problems. Should you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact your authorized ~ealer or the KRELL staff for assistance.
The Full Power Balanced series of amplifiers consists of three stereo amplifiers,
the Full Power Balanced200, 300, and 600, and the three monaural amplifiers,
the Full Power Balanced 250M, 350M, and 650M. Installation, connection, and
operation of all amplifiers in the series is identical; however, please note that two Full Power Balanced 250M, 350M or 650M amplifiers are required for stereo operation.
In the unlikely event that your Full Power Balanced amplifier should require service, you wi!! be pleased to know that is backed by a comprehensive Customer Satisfaction policy and one of the most advanced service facilities in the industry. For detailed information on the terms and conditions of service,
please refer to the Warranty and Service section of this Reference, Warranty Registration Card, or an authorized KRELL Dealer or Distributor.

Location
Place the Full Powe~ Balanced amplifier on a firm level surface away from dirt or moisture. When using custom racks or cabinetry, keep in mind the weight and
ventilation requirements for these amplifiers. Ideally, the amplifier should be
placed as close to the speakers as possible. It is preferable to run long
balanced interconnect cables to the amplifier and keep the speaker cable length to a minimum. Speaker cable adds impedance to the I-6ad the amplifier
must drive, regardless of the cable’s gauge. All KRELL amplifiers will drive the lowest impedances with ease, but when impedance is added due to long cable lengths, amplifier power is wasted in the cable. Long speaker cables reduce the maximum power that can be delivered to the speakers.
Remote Installation
Some installations do not have adequate, space or flexibility to place the amplifier close to the speakers. The Full Power Balanced amplifiers can be situated in a
room or space close to the speakers, but out of sight, .and turned On or Off from the listening room. Intemally, a provision has been made allowing the amplifier to be powered On from an AC wall receptacle and not from the front panel power switch or optional remote control. We suggest mounting a standard wall switch
in the listening room that controls an AC power outlet dedicated to the power amplifier. This arrangement can be provided by an electrician. Please contact your dealer for assistance.
NOTE: Once AC power is applied, the front panel power switch and the remote

Cabinetry Considerations
Class A operation offers tremendous sonic benefits. Unfortunately, traditional
Class A amplifiers dissipate a tremendous amount of heat. KRELL’s patented
Sustained Plateau Bias circuitry combats this characteristic and reduces the heat
output considerably. However, the Full Power Balanced amplifiers can still
become quite warm under normal operation. The Full Power Balanced amplifiers
should be installed in a location that provides unobstructed ventilation.
IMPORTANT: The ventilation gdds on the top of all Full Power Balanced amplifiers need to be unobstructed at all times during operation. Do not place flammable material on top of or beneath Full Power Balanced amplifiers. For
installations inside cabinetry, extra ventilation may be necessary. Make sure the
Full Power Balanced amplifiers have adequate air circulation. Generally, two inches of clearance on each side of the amplifier and eight inches of clearance
above the amplifier will provide adequate ventilation. In more extreme instances,
-, small fans can aid in removing excess heat from internal spaces-. Contact your dealer, distributor, or Kreil®for more information.
6
AC Power Considerations
For best performan¢-e, a dedicated AC power line rated at a minimum of fifteen amps is recommended for each amplifier. For maximum power output, the Full Power Balanced 300 and 600 amplifiers Should be operated from a dedicated twenty amp AC power line. The Full Power Balanced amplifiers should only be operated with the power cord supplied. Please consult KRELL.or your dealer
before using any devices designed to alter or stabilize the AC power for the Full
Power Balanced amplifiers.
Connections
CAUTION: The differential circuitry employed within the Full Power
Balanced aml~lifiers requires special attention when connecting speakers. Be careful not to connect the negative speaker terminals together. Do not connect the negative speaker terminals to ground, or attempt to bridge the left and right channels together of the Full Power Balanced stereo
amplifiers.-Please contact KRELL: Industries for assistance. Input and Output Connections
Caution: When making connections to this component or any other, make sure the power amplifier is off and the preamplifier is in the mute or stand-by mode.
The widng to and from the amplifier and all components in general should be
arranged in a neat, organized manner. Specifically, AC wires should be separated from audio cables. This practice prevents hum or other unwanted
noise from being introduced into the system.
1. Connect the speaker cables to the amplifier’s output terminals.
The Full Power Balanced amplifiers utilize two custom sets of identical speaker terminals for the each channel. This configuration makes cable connections and
biwiring simple. The speaker terminals only accept spade lugs. Bare wire,
banana lugs, or pins will not work. The red terminals are used for positive
connections and the blue terminals are used for the negative connections.
Either the upper or lower set of speaker terminals may be used with speakers
having one pair of binding posts. For biwiring, both sets of terminals should be
used. Consult your speaker’s instruction manual for biwiring connections.
CAUTION: Make sure all cable terminations are of the highest quality, free from
frayed ends, shorts, or poor solder connections.
2,
C~nnect the interconnect cables from your preamplifier, to the input of the Full Power Balanced amplifier.
The Full Power Balanced amplifiers are equipped with balanced and single­ended inputs. The balanced inputs use three pin XLR connectors and the
single-ended inputs use RCA connectors. We recommend the use of balanced
interconnects,.sonically and electrically, because of their immur~ty to induced
noise and minimal sonic loss resulting from long cable lengths.
CAUTION: Use only one set of inputs to the amplifier at a time. The Full Power Balanced amplifiers are shipped with shorting pins in the XLR inputs, These pins should remain in the XLR inputs if the Full Power Balanced amplifier is operating in the single-ended mode. When the shorting pin is inserted, pins 1
and 3 are shorted together. The shorting pins must be removed to connect the
Full Power Balanced amplifiers for balanced operation.
The pin assignment for the XLR is:
pin 1 = shield (ground) pin 2 = non_-inverting input (hot) pin 3 = inverting in put
.3~ Insert the AC power cord into the receptacle located on the back of the Full
Power Balanced amplifier. Insert the other end in’to the AC wall receptacle.
The amplifier is now ready for operation as described in the Amplifier
Operation section below. Should you have any questions regarding system set-up, contact your dealer or KRELL Industries.
¯ Linking Multiple Amplifiers - Remote In / Out connections
The Remote In/Out function is used to synchronize remote control operation in systems that include multiple amplifiers. When the In/Out ports are utilized, the connected amplifier’s remote capabilities will be linked and controlled from one
amplifier.
Make sure all amplifiers are off, including the power breakers located on the
rear panel, before proceeding. This insures-all amplifiers are synchronized
when the communication cable is connected.
Select the amplifier that will be the control amplifier, Only this amplifier will receive remote commands and should be in plain view for proper remote control operation. All additional amplifiers are considered slaves and will only respond to remote commands received via the In/Out communication
8
cable. Connect one end of the linking cable to the connector labeled Out on the back panel.
3.
Connect the other end of the linking cable to the In port on the second amplifier.
4.
To couple three amplifiers, connect a second linking cable to the Out connector on the second amplifier. Connect the remaining end to the In port on the third amplifier.
5. Connect additional amplifiers as described in step 4.
6. Point a KRELL remote control at the control amplifier and press the Amp. Power button. The amplifiers will all power up at the same time.
Notes:
When configured for Remote In / Out operation, each amplifier can be turned ON/OFF individually from their respective front panels. All amplifiers must be returned to the identical power state manually in order to maintain remote synchronization.
The communication cables are standard five pin DIN ~;ables and are commonly referred to as MIDI cables. Contact your KRELL dealer or KRELL Industries to obtain remote link cables.
For Use with a Tube Preamplifer
The Full Power Balanced amplifiers feature direct coupted circuitryfrom input to output. This topology eliminates all coupling capacitorsfrom the audio signal path. Coupling capacitors are used to blockdamaging direct current (DG) but have sonic characteristics that impact music negatively. Instead, KRELL uses non-obtrusive DC servos that strip DC from the signal without corrupting the music.
Tube preamplifiers, by design, are capacitively coupled. For this reason, the benefits of a direct coupled amplifier cannot be realized when used with a tube preamplifier. Additionally, many tube preamplifiers output a great deal of DC. This DC may exceed the servos of a Full Power Balanced amplifier. Excessive
DC level in a signal can damage amplifiers, speakers, or both.
To combat this potential problem, the Full Power Balanced amplifiers include
internal jumpers that insert coupling capacitors into the signal path. These
capacitors should be engaged when using a tube preamplifier with a Full
9
Powbr Balanced amplifier. If not utilized, KRELL reserves the right to
refuse warranty service due to DC related damage. Please contact your
KRELL dealer for =assistance.
Amplifier Operation
Understanding the operation of the Full Power Balanced amplifiers is very easy. Equally important is an understanding of the care that should be exercised when
operating the system as a whole, in relation to the enormous power output of the
Full Power Balanced amplifiers. Simple mistakes, such as switching between
active sources without muting the preamplifier output, or bumping/miscuing a cartridge, can generate large transients at low.frequencies. With this type of transient the Full Power Balanced amplifiers can generate enough power to
damage most loudspeakers. All switching of sources should be done with the
preamplifier level either muted or fully attenuated. Inputs to the amPlifier should
not be change--d while the amplifier is on.
NOTE: Care must be taken when setting high playback levels. Because of their
tremendous.reserve of clean power, KRELL amplifiers can safely drive speakers to higher sound pressure levels than other amplifiers. Always turn the level d._own at the first sign of speaker distress.

Locate the power breaker on the rear panel of the amplifier. Move the switch to the ON position. The power LED, labeled P, will illuminate on the from panel. This engages the input circuitry and sets the amplifier to the Standby position.
Press the silver power button on the front panel of the amplifier. The regulator LED, labeled R, will illuminate. Once the regulator secures control ­of the output stage, the bias LED, labeled B, will illuminate. The Sustained
Plateau Bias IIsystem is now engaged. After the protection circuits have confirmed that safe operating conditions exist, the input relays will engage. You will hear a click. The amplifier is now ready for operation.
3. With the preamplifier in the Mute position, or volume control fully attenuated, select a source. Turn the volume control up to your desired listening level.
4. When turning the system off, lower the volume of the preamplifier completely or place it into the mute or stand-by position. Switch the amplifier to Standby
10
by pressing the silver power button. It is now safe to turn off the rest of the system.
NOTE: For optimal performance, the rear panel power breaker should be left in
the ON position at all times.
Remote Control Operation
An optional remote control is available for the Full Power Balanced amplifiers. The amplifiers can be switched between Standby and Operate via this remote control or from the remote controls included with KRELL preamplifiers, the KRELL Audio + Video Standard, and the KPS 25s KRELL Playback System.
System Noise C0hsiderati0ns
AC grounding Eecomes critical when connecting high performance audio components. When mixing and ma.tching audio components, each with their own ground potential, a low frequency hum may occur in one or both speakers.
This often occurs when introducing a new component into a system.
If there is a low frequency hum emanating from the speakers when the Full Power Balanced amplifier is placed into the system, follow these simple trouble-
shooting steps before cont~lcting your KRELL dealer: "
Check a!! input and output connections, making sure they are of sound construction. With the amplifier off. remove the interconnect wiring and turn
the amplifier back on. if the hum disappears, shut the amplifier off and
reinsert one of the interconnect cables and turn the amplifier back on. If the hum reappears with one or both interconnects reinserted, there may be a defective cable. Have the interconnect cabling checked before proceeding.
If the interconnects prove to be sound, you may be experiencing a ground loop. This can often be easily eliminated. Contact your dealer or KRELL for
assistance.
Protection Circuitry
There are no output fuses in the Full Power Balanced amplifiers. The amplifiers
are protected by a series of non-intrusive circuits that constantly evaluate the
amplifier’s operation. Appropriate protection action exists for input and output
DC conditions, short circuit, regulator uniformity, and AC power anomalies. Collectively, the protection circuitry is designed to avoid damage to the amplifier or speakers caused by other defective components, faulty wiring, system
11
mishandling, or amplifier failure. See the Troubleshooting section below for more information.

Question and Answer
Q. Should I leave the Full Power Balanced amplifier on at all times?
For maximum performance, the rear panel breaker should remain on at all
times. This is the stand-by position. From this position, the Full Power
Balanced amplifier is designed to be turned On/Off without the "cold start" degradations associated with other products. The amplifier will operate at
full performance within minutes of turn-on.
Q. When I turn the amplifier on there is a loud hum through the speakers. What
should I do?
Ao
When a new Component is introduced, a hum may be~:ome present. This is often caused by a ground loop or defective cabling. Check your cables to and from the amplifier. See the Noise Considerations section for more information, if the hum persists., contact your dealer or the KRELL staff for assistance.
Q. My system includes multiple pairs of speakers~ Can ! connect them to the
Full Power Balanced amplifier through a speaker selector box?
No. Most speaker selector boxes utilize a commoh ground. The differential circuitry in the Full Power Balanced amplifiers prohibits the use of these
devices. Do not connect a Full Power Balanced amplifier to a speaker
selector device that employs a common ground scheme.
Q. My speakers only have one set of binding posts. Which set of speaker
terminals should I use on the amplifier?
A.
The two sets of speaker terminals for each channel on the Full Power
Balanced are identical. You can use either the top or bottom set. They
sound and work the same.
Q.
My speakers are rated for 150 watts, is the Full Power Balar~ced 300 or Full
Power Balanced 600 too powerful for them. Seldom is a speaker damaged from over-driving. More often, damage occurs
when an amplifier that lacks sufficient power is asked to handle heavy
demand situations. These amplifiers may have very high 8.Q power ratings, but in heavy demand situations they can be driven into clipping that damages speakers. Because of their tremendous capabilities, the Full Power Balanced amplifiers are capable of damaging speakers, but a responsible
listener should know the limitations of his/her system and exercise caution.
13
(3.
When I connected the Full Power Balanced amplifier to my system using the single-ended inputs a loud buzz emanates from my speakers. Is the amplifier
broken?
Ao
When using the single-ended inputs, the included shorting pins must be
inserted into the XLR inputs. These shorting pins must be inserted between pins 1 and 3 to prohibit external noise from corrupting the signal.
