Thank you for your purchase of the Krell DVD Standard.
The DVD Standard is designed to provide the finest Digital Video
Disc image available, allowing you to seamlessly integrate the DVD
Standard with the highest quality video display devices. The DVD
Standard’s tremendous and carefully regulated power supply results
in picture stability even during line fluctuations. Advanced drive
mechanisms provide superior disc reading capabilities.
The DVD Standard, Krell’s first video source component, is engi-
neered with the latest technology from Faroudja Laboratories, widely
recognized as a video technology leader. The FLI 2200 line doubler
together with the FLI 2220 enhancer support progressive scan
(480p) video signals, producing a video image for standard and wide
screens that is bright, detailed, and free of any motion artifact. The
DVD Standard has progressive scan video connections as well as
standard component, S-video, and composite video connections. The
RGB/YPbPr switch provides maximum flexibility for progressive scan
connections.
The DVD Standard wireless infrared remote control and RS-232,
RC-5, and 12 VDC remote connection options on the back panel
allow you to integrate the DVD Standard into advanced control sys-
tems. The user-friendly setup menu provides a variety of audio,
video, and access control options for optimum configuration and
enjoyment of your DVD Standard and home theater system.
This owner’s reference manual contains important information on
placement, connection, and operation of your DVD Standard. Please
read this information carefully. A thorough understanding of these
details will help ensure satisfactory operation and long life for your
DVD Standard and related system components.
Introduction
Krell DVD Standard 1
Off
When the AC power cord is unplugged from the AC power source,
the component is off.
Stand-by Mode
When the DVD Standard is connected to AC power, the red stand-by
LED illuminates. This indicates that the component is in stand-by
mode, a low power consumption status that keeps the audio and reg-
ulator circuits at idle. Krell recommends leaving the component in the
stand-by mode when not playing a disc.
Operational Mode
When the power button on the front panel or power key on the
remote control is pressed and the blue power LED illuminates, the
component is in the operational mode and ready to play a disc.

OPERATION
Following are the definitions of key terms used in your owner’s refer-
ence manual.
Balanced
A symmetrical input or output circuit that has equal impedance from
both input terminals to a common ground reference point. The indus-
try standard for professional and sound recording installations, bal-
anced connections have 6 dB more gain than single-ended connec-
tions and allow the use of long interconnect cables. Balanced con-
nections are more immune to induced noise from the system or the
environment.
Single-ended
A two-wire input or output circuit. Use care when using single-ended
connections. Turn the system off prior to making or breaking single-
ended connections. Single-ended connections are not recommended
for connections requiring long cable runs.
INPUT AND OUTPUT
CONNECTIONS
Definition of Terms
Krell DVD Standard 3
Composite Video
An encoded video signal that includes horizontal and vertical syn-
chronizing information.
Component Video
A video signal that uses three wires to convey luminance (Y), red
minus luminance (R-Y), and blue minus luminance (B-Y) signals.
Progressive Scan Video
Video signals (noninterlaced) that build screen content in one pass
rather than the two passes required for standard (interlaced) video.
This technology eliminates motion artifact and screen line and pro-
duces film-quality pictures.
RGB
Red, green, and blue, the three primary colors used in video
processing.
S-Video
Video signal that separately transmits the color and luminance com-
ponents of the video signal but does not use three separate wires as
does component video.
YPbPr
One way of designating color difference signals. Y = the luminance
signal, Pb = the red minus luminance (R-Y) signal, and Pb = the blue
minus luminance (B-Y) signal.

Krell DVD Standard 5
Before you install the DVD Standard into your system, review the
following guidelines to choose the location for the component. This
will facilitate a clean, trouble-free installation. The DVD Standard
does not require any type of special rack or cabinet for installation.
Place the DVD Standard on a firm, level surface, away from exces-
sive heat, humidity, or moisture. The DVD Standard requires at least
two inches (5 cm) of clearance on each side and at least two inches
(5 cm) of clearance above and below the component to provide ade-
quate ventilation. Installations inside cabinetry may need extra venti-
lation.
The DVD Standard has superb regulation and does not require a
dedicated AC circuit. Operate the DVD Standard only with the power
cord supplied.
Avoid connections through extension cords or multipleAC adapters.
High quality 15 amp grounded AC strips are acceptable. High quality
AC line conditioners or filters may be used if they are grounded and
meet or exceed the unit’s power supply rating of 100 VA.
Please contact your Krell dealer, distributor, or Krell before using any
device designed to alter or stabilize the AC power for the DVD
Standard.
Placement
The DVD Standard incorporates an advanced suspension system and does
not require additional mass coupling or isolation. You may experiment with
feet or cones as long as they are not permanently affixed to the unit.Any
unauthorized modifications to the unit or electronics will void the warranty.
Do not attach enhancement accessories such as rings, mats, or
dampers to individual discs. These accessories may interfere with the
disc transport, resulting in erratic playback and/or poor performance.

AC Power
Guidelines
Choose and Connect the Video Outputs
Choose the output that matches your video monitor. The DVD
Standard supports both progressive scan video (noninterlaced) and
standard video (interlaced) outputs. Options for each are explained
on the following pages.
The component YPbPr outputs will provide the best quality picture
when connected to a television capable of accepting a 480p sig-
nal. This includes most plasma, D-ILA, DLP, and HDTV ready
televisions.
6Krell DVD Standard
To connect the DVD Standard to your video monitor, you need to:
connect to AC power, choose your video format, choose and then
connect video outputs, and configure the DVD Standard to match
your television format. These steps are explained below.
Match the video format (NTSC/PAL) of the monitor and the video sig-
nal of the DVD Standard to avoid a distorted picture.
Connect to AC Power
Plug the AC cord into the wall outlet. The red stand-by LED (3) illumi-
nates.
Choose the Video Format
Set the NTSC/PAL switch (25) on the back panel to the format that
matches your video monitor. See your monitor’s owner’s manual for
information.
Getting Started
The NTSC/PAL switch is active only when the DVD Standard is in the
stand-by mode. Changing the switch position while the component is
in the operational mode will not change the video format.
