When we entered the home theater market in 1996, we refused to compromise our standards. Our first surround-sound processor, the Krell Audio + Video Standard, elevated the expectations of home theater aficionados around the world. No one else had attempted to create a surround processor that could compete with the finest two-channel preamps.

And to this day, no one else has achieved the level of performance you get in Krell surround processors. Borrowing circuitry, power supply design, and construction techniques from our best two-channel preamps, we achieve a level of transparency and sonic purity never thought possible in multichannel sound. We always incorporate the latest technologies including HDMI 1.4 compliance, to get the best performance from the ever-evolving standards of the home theater industry.
