The Krell KPS-20<I>i</I> (KPS stands for "Krell Playback System") is essentially a CD transport and digital processor in one chassis. What make the KPS-20<I>i</I> different from a CD player are the unit's five digital inputs, which allow the KPS-20<I>i</I> to function as a digital/analog converter for external digital sources.

Threshold is one of the longest-surviving high-end audio companies. Founded in the 1970s by <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/interviews/1191pass">Nelson Pass</A> and Ren&#233; Besne, it was acquired by a large, publicly traded corporation in 1988. This had both positive and negative results in that Threshold was then able to expand its activities, adding the cost-effective Fort&#233; line of products, but energies were drained away from cutting-edge design. Besne left the company in 1991, while Pass resigned in 1992 to pursue other interests. (These blossomed into the Pass Aleph 0 amplifier reviewed by DO in March '95, Vol.18 No.3.)
