A Letter from Dan D’Agostino
Dear Audio Enthusiast,
Thank you for your purchase of the Krell Evolution 222 preamplifier.
The preamplifier plays a vital role in audio playback by mediating the line-level out-
put of a wide variety of source components in preparation for the amplifier’s input.
At no other point in the reproduction process is music so vulnerable to change, as
the signal level is small, and susceptible to noise and distortion.
Having always valued the role of the preamplifier in fine audio systems, I take pre-
amplifier design very seriously. I realize that, no matter how impressive an amplifi-
er’s performance; it can be no better than that of the preamplifier driving it.
My new Evolution 222 preamplifier employs balanced Krell Current Mode gain
stages from input to output, and Current Audio Signal Transmission (CAST)
receivers and transmitters. Utilizing these powerful technologies, the Evolution 222
conveys the complete range of timbre and dynamics that comprise the foundation
musical performance. Typical of my latest preamplifier designs, the Evolution 222
preamplifier includes a thoughtful suite of menu options, and can be customized
for the greatest ease of operation.
I hope that you enjoy your new Evolution 222 preamplifier.
Sincerely,
Daniel D’Agostino
Chief Executive Officer
