So you still can't prove that there is any AUDIBLE problem with the
relay.
Is there anything you CAN prove?
I mean aside from the fact that you are an idiot.

Mikey, you have an inferior mind. It is not possible for you to understand
the wisdom of the Krell.

I understand that they know what it takes to builkd an amp that will pass a
signal without audible distortion and then build way beyond that, thus
making equipment that while in no way audibly superior to other competently
designed amplifers, will last for a very long time. Nothing wrong with
that, I just don't see the need when normally constructed gear can last
15-20 years without the overbuilding.

The Krells are unlikely to be champions of reliability. The high
dissipation means the transistors will probably last several years, but
because of Krell's refusal to make documentation generally available,
repair will likely require a lot of reverse engineering and likely as
not modification to use the available devices in 20 to 50 years. Class
B solid state amps probably will last longer without major rework, but
not sound quite as good.
