Does anyone know of Krell power amp disctretes? I have an FBP-600 and need the power commands....Please e-mail me or post them here....Thanks ahead of time

I screwed up my e-mail address...it's not [email protected]'s [email protected]

Jose,

I have an FPB-200. Discrete on and off commands aren't available. However, Krell has just released a product that they call "12V-Krell Link Converter." This will take a 12V trigger signal from your preamp or other source and turn your Krell amp on or off as appropriate. Due to a misunderstanding when I bought mine, I got the converter for free. I don't know what the list price is, but knowing Krell, it probably isn't cheap. I've had mine for about a week now and it has worked perfectly so far.

Hello,

I did send a message to Jose, but just in case anyone else needs it, the "AMP POWER" IR command for the Krell amplifiers is an RC-5 code which can be easily entered in ProntoEdit under button properties. Here is what you need:

Actually, I just realized that in my e-mail to Jose I goofed on one of the numbers... I listed the HEX number, not the decimal number for the System. The following should work:

System: 16

Command: 40

I will double check this over the weekend when I can try it out on an FPB amp.

Just to make sure everyone is clear on this, the code that Mark sent is the power toggle command. The Krell amplifiers don't support discrete on and off. Only the FPB series amps support IR control - the KAV amps have a 12V trigger input instead (which is actually more useful, IMHO). The new device I mentioned in my previous post gives the FPB amps 12V trigger control.

I corrected the decimal codes. You gave me 10, 40...and I changed it to 16, 40.

Thank you all for the help.

16,40 does the trick for my FPB-300. Thanks!
