CONFIGURATIONS | Theater Throughput |
INPUT AND OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
Theater Throughput is a Krell configuration option that allows the signal from a surround preamp/processor to pass through a Krell preamplifier or integrated amplifier input at unity gain and sus- pends operation of the preamp volume control. When Theater Throughput is employed, control of the volume is accomplished through the home theater processor.
Balanced
A symmetrical input or output circuit that has equal impedance from both input terminals to a common ground reference point. The industry standard for professional and sound recording instal- lations, balanced connections have 6 dB more gain than single- ended connections and allow the use of long interconnect cables. Balanced connections are completely immune to induced noise from the system or the environment.
CAST and Evolution CAST
Krell Current Audio Signal Transmission, or CAST, is a proprietary Krell circuit technology for connecting analog components, transmitting the audio waveform between components in the current domain rather than in the voltage domain. The speed and bandwidth provided by Krell CAST and its circuitry update, Evolution CAST, yield accurate, realistic music reproduction, enabling connected components to perform as if they are all part of a single circuit.
