Krell Showcase 7.1 Processor THX Ultra certified

This listing is for a very good condition condition Krell Showcase 7 Balanced 7.1 Channel Surround Processor. Designed by Dan D'Agostino while still at Krell A/V, this thing is an
absolute 7.1-channel monster. Able to accept
96kHz/24bit stereo PCM via any digital input, in addition to all of
the surround formats, this THX Ultra certified Processor is great for
music and movies. 24bit/192kHz DACs and ADCs for every channel. The analog stereo direct mode ("preamp" on the front display) is legitimately excellent in an absolute sense;
not just for a surround processor. One of the best I've heard. Very
organic and detailed. Imaging is excellent and the sense of weight
and space is duly present. The Showcase does not have the current
thin/strident Krell sound; but the sound that made them famous. It's
confidently dynamic, but it's never brash or in your face. Everything
is still liquid smooth and digital usually sounds like analog from
Tidal or Qobuzz. A mean feat even with today's equipment.

The Showcase also has a full 7.1 analog
input via SE/RCA on the rear panel. Adding a modern BD player is a
cinch. It has a full compliment of XLR and RCA outputs for all 7.1
channels. 4 Toslink inputs and 4 S/PDIF inputs, along with a stereo
XLR input make this a real option for dual use service (multi-channel
and high end stereo). The OpAmps driving the outputs are really
strong and clean (Burr Brown OP275). This will drive any
amplifier (regardless of input impedance or gain structure) with
ease.
There are a few scratches on the top cover - see attached pictures. The Processor functions flawlessly and plays beautiful music. This was in our guest bedroom and hardly saw any use at all over the years. I'm selling due to a house remodel. 
Comes with original Krell box and packaging as well as documentation. Remote included. The remote controls the Processor as well as the Showcase 5 multi-channel amp that is listed for sale as well.
