New photos of the Crystalio Processors will be posted in the next few days, photography work will be shot in high-resolution by Larry Diaz for High-End Palace.

 

Crystalio II

   The new Crystalio is consider as the world's best and most advanced video processor. Yes sir! Arguably the best overall processor/upscaler available. The most amazing processor/upscaler we have ever seen and tested with features, flexibility, settings and control over the picture never seen before. Click on this link and see a video of this amazing product: CRYSTALIO VIDEO. The new Crystalio sets the bar for processors/upscalers higher than ever with this new product, here it is on a nut shell:

 

  • The new Crystalio has the latest VXP/GENNUM chip. (The current leader in signal processing.)
  • 10 quality inputs
  • 4 HDMI Inputs accepting up to 1080p
  • 2 SDI for Inputs
  • 2 HDMI's and 5 BNC component OUTPUTS
  • 100 steps plus or minus for every adjustment
  • Superb noise reduction!
  • The menu, flexibility and remote? forget about it! It's the best available!
  • As far as what it does for the picture, beyond words my friends, see for your self in the photo samples posted below
  • Available with Silver or Black Faceplates

 

  In the past few years I have been asked this question quite a bit, Larry why do I need a processor/upscaler? My projector or plasma has one in it and a couple of inputs already. The answer is that there is no replacement for a quality processor, a reference processor will provide you with a picture quality, flexibility, features, control and reference processing power to provide you with a picture quality like the photo samples bellow, these sort of perfection can not be achieve without it. Is like adding a $15,000 Reference DAC to a high-end two channel music system, the performance simply just jumps to another world.

A reference processor provides your theater such a profound effect that the picture simply looks dead and washed out without it. Also, the depth of field without a processor practically does not exist, is more two dimensional. In order to flesh out and image you need some serious clean processing power, and the two main ingredients needed to do that is a high quality processing from a reference processor/upscaler and light output.

Balanced Audio Technology VK-6200 Multi Monoblocks in one chassis

 

Note from The Palace,

   The VK-6200 is a work of art from the stand point of it's flexibility and design. Imaging a reference quality single chassis amplifier with up to six channels of BAT high-end sound with discrete 200 Watts in 8 Ohms and 400 Watts monoblocks modules inside on there individual bays with XLR and RCA inputs. This stunning VK-6200 is the best overall multi-channel we have ever seen and tested. It's a truly unique piece, this unit weighs between 130 and 220 pounds depending how is configured and is extremely well built. 

I have personally driven this amplifier to extremes with performances from the delicate jazz CD's of Ella Fitzgerald to a David Gilmour live concert at Royal Albert hall in HD and it's passes the test with flying colors. Like I said, it's the best period. We recommend the VK-6200 for the finest music systems and theaters that are looking for the best sound and flexibility in a stunning package.

MODULAR DESIGN

BAT audio amplifiers already power many of the world s finest music systems. But even when resources and space are available, using one to five chassis for music or home theater installation is less than elegant. Until now, the compromises required to fit several channels of amplification into a single chassis have always limited sound quality, even for high-end components. Even the best of them require an expensive commitment to buy the fully loaded configuration at the start. The VK-6200 is different. Its modular design accommodates up to six discrete 200 Watts in 8 Ohms and 400 Watts amplifier modules. It can be purchased in any configuration. Additional channels can be added later as needed, and installed at home. This is intelligent design, a BAT hallmark.

 

MULTI-MONOBLOCK MUSICALITY

To conserve space and parts cost, all the channels in most multi-channel music system and theater amplifiers share a single power supply transformer. Not in the VK-6200. Robust, stable power is indispensable to fine sound quality, so each of the VK-6200 s modules bears its own dedicated power supply with a huge, 700VA toroidal transformer, that's 4200VA for a single chassis with six channels driven by this rock-solid power source. BAT's renowned zero-feedback, balanced topology delivers consistent and captivating performance no matter how the VK-6200 is configured. The sound is open and delicate, with effortless dynamic authority -- pure BAT. Delivering 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms, and 400 watts into 4 ohm loads, this is a true reference product. At last: musical finesse and theater-sized performance, combined without compromise.

 

ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY

In its two-channel configuration, the VK-6200 outperforms reference-level audio amps costing three times as much. It provides an ideal solution for power bi-amping, tri-amping, or multi-room audio systems where exacting sound quality is required. Imagine: match a three-channel VK-6200 with our VK-600 or VK-150SE monoblocks to create a five channel theater, a practical upgrade path for current BAT owners. Apply the VK-6200 in a four-channel configuration for the ultimate in power bi-amping for a stereo system. Fully load the VK-6200 with six channels to create a reference-quality 6.1 channel theater. This extraordinary versatility and rational upgrade path set the VK-6200 apart, and extend the tradition that has won Balanced Audio Technology unprecedented customer loyalty.

The KRELL photos shot in HR by Larry for High-End Palace. Actual photos of the HTS and 1500 for Sale.

 

 

KRELL HTS & KRELL KAV-1500

 

     The Theater Standard processor features KRELL's Current Mode discrete Class A direct-coupled circuitry with balanced outputs, Dolby Digital (AC-3), Dolby Pro Logic, and DTS decoding, KRELL Music Surround modes even balance analog inputs for audiophiles. 

 

     The KRELL KAV-1500 is a very special multi channel amplifier because it has true effortless power to drive any complete speaker system with ease. There are very few multi channel amplifiers that can compete with the KRELL 1500; in order to do better you most go to 5 Mono Blocks. There is no receiver in this world that can even come close to matching the KRELL 1500 performance, none! We have done many A/B's in the past to show customers that their is no substitute for quality amplification, for headroom, for clean power, most home theater systems sound compress, distorted and after a 5 minutes into a movie or a concert you have a headache because today's better main speakers, center channels and rears demand better amplification for the volume and quality that most videophiles like to enjoy now days. 

 

     We have the original boxes, manuals and master KRELL remote. These units are as new as they come; it was a trade-in from a very good client of ours that takes extremely good care of his high-end audio and theater equipment. Please contact The Palace 786 388-8050 that we will give some lucky client a deal on these two units, especially if you are a client of ours.
