This section provides information about operating the KAV–300iL.
The KAV–300iL provides basic input selection and volume control
operation from the front panel. The remote control includes addi-
tional preamplifier functions as well as CD transport and amplifier
controls. See Remote Control, on page 13, for more information.
After the KAV–300iL is connected to AC power and is in the
stand-by mode, use the power button (1) or key (24) to switch the
component to the operational mode. The blue power LED (2)
illuminates.
The KAV–300iL Remote Control Integrated Amplifier is easy to
operate. However, great care should be exercised when operating
a system that includes the KAV–300iL, because of the amplifier's
power output. Switching between active sources without muting
the preamplifier output, or bumping/miscuing a device, can gener-
ate large transients at low frequencies. The KAV–300iL may gen-
erate enough power with these transients to damage most loud-
speakers. To avoid damage, be sure to switch all sources with the
preamplifier level either muted or fully attenuated. Do not change
inputs to the amplifier while the amplifier is on.
Krell amplifiers have large reserves of clean power and can safely drive
loudspeakers to higher sound pressure levels than other amplifiers.
However, use care when setting high playback levels and lower the vol-
ume level at any sign of loudspeaker distress.
When powering up any system, always turn amplifiers on last.
When powering down, always turn amplifiers off first.
1. When the amplifier is in stand-by mode, with the red stand-by
LED (3) illuminated, turn the amplifier on by pressing the
power button (1), or pressing the power key (24) on the remote
control. There is an audible click. The blue power LED (2) illu-
minates, and the red stand-by LED (3) turns off. The amplifier
is now ready for operation.
2. With the amplifier in the mute position, or the volume control
fully attenuated, select a source from the front panel (5) or
using the remote control (26). Start playing the source. Set the
volume to a comfortable listening level using the level up and
down buttons (10) or volume keys (29).
