14 Krell KA V– 400xi Krell recommends using balanced interconnect cables. Balanced interconnect cables not only can minimize sonic loss but are also immune to induced noise, especially with installations using long cables. Balanced connections have 6 dB more gain than single- ended connections.
Krell KA V– 400xi 15 This section provides information about operating the KA V– 400xi. The KA V– 400xi provides basic input selection and volume control operation from the front panel. The remote control includes addi- tional preamplifier and volume functions as well as compact disc transport and amplifier controls.

To turn the amplifier off, press the power button on the front panel or the power key on the remote control (1).
Krell KA V– 400xi 17 To simplify the integration of an audio/video surround sound processor into your system, set any input on the KA V– 400xi (S-1, S-2, S-3, or B-1) to operate as a unity gain stage. Krell calls this configuration Theater Throughput.
18 Krell KA V– 400xi The KA V– 400xi is equipped with a pair of single-ended preamplifi- er outputs (19). These outputs enable the KA V– 400xi to be used as a preamplifier when it is connected to a separate amplifier . The amplifier channel outputs are always active, even when the KA V– 400xi is being used only as a preamplifier .
Krell KA V– 400xi 19 AC grounding becomes critical when connecting high performance audio components. When you mix and match audio components, each with its own ground potential, a low frequency hum may occur in one or both loudspeakers. This sometimes occurs when introducing a new component into a system.
