Looks like Krell gone Green, this was taken fom the web site.
LESS HEAT, LOWER ENERGY CONSUMPTION
A new green standby mode reduces standby power draw dramatically. Standby power draw for all Evolution e Series amplifiers has been reduced to 2W. As an example, the Evolution 402 power draw drops from 260W to 2W in the Evolution 402e - a reduction of 99% in energy draw and a huge drop in heat output. The power indicator ring now glows green to indicate the new energy efficient mode.

Take a look: http://www.krellonline.com/amplifiers.html

The Evolution 900e is the most powerful member of the Evolution Series. At a staggering 3,600 watts into a 2 Ohm load, the Evolution 900e is a virtually limitless source of power for any speaker. This power capability is coupled to a new green operating mode that reduces standby electrical draw to a mere 2 Watts. While power is essential for lifelike volume levels and realistic dynamics, the true benefit of this engine is its ability to dominate a speaker and extract the ultimate performance from any speaker design. Dedicating one amplifier per speaker is the recognized best path to ultimate performance. As such, the Evolution 900e is a monaural design requiring two for stereo reproduction or left and right power amplifiers in a home theater system...
