Krell Link Operation

3.Connect one end of a MIDI cable to the Krell Link out connector, on the control component back panel.

4.Connect the other end of a MIDI cable to the Krell Link in connector, on the back panel of the next component.

5.To link another component, connect another MIDI cable to the Krell Link out connector on the back panel of the second component. Connect the remaining end of the MIDI cable to the Krell Link in connector, on the back panel of a third component.

6.Link additional components, if desired.

The components are now ready for operation with Krell Link.

Krell Link Operation

1.When all components are linked, as described above, place each component in the stand-by mode. This ensures all components are synchronized when signals from the control component are sent to linked components.

2.Switch the control component to the operational mode using the component’s power key on the remote control. The linked components simultaneously switch to the operational mode.

An individual linked component can be manually switched between the stand-by and the operational modes from its front panel. Switching a linked component temporarily breaks the chain of linked components. To re-establish linked operation, return all components to the stand-by mode.

Note

Other Krell components can be configured to allow you to disconnect or reconnect the Krell Link feature without physically disconnecting or reconnecting the components and MIDI cables. See the owner’s reference for your Krell component.

His exploration of technologies, driven by his never-endingquest to elevate the standard of excellence, has resulted in break- through audio designs. Over the years, the Krell line of power amplifiers, including benchmark products such as the KRS -100,KRS -200,and the Audio Standard models, has established a legacy of unparalleled sonic performance.
