Threshold amps

well, the last part of Unsound's post is correct - the new Thresold amps are made in China. Threshold is now HQ'd in Houston, TX (if I remember correctly). CES2006 coverage in one of the emagazines is where I read the manuf in China bit.

Stick with the Pure Class A Threshold amps.
*The SA series.

Owning just about every Threshold amp ever made since 1978
the SA series are clearly the best sounding amps. I still own about 15 Threshold pieces.

The Best sounding Threshold mono block amps are the Threshold SA/1's in Balance mode. SA/12e's are second best mono block amps. They give more power but not as sweet soundinga as the SA/1's in balance.

The Best sounding Threshold Stereo amp is the SA/4e.

Bombaywalla, if anything I posted is incorrect please correct me.

the new reissue s/350e does double down 150 8ohm/300 4ohm.
class a/ab retails for $2000.

I have one of the original S350e power amps and it is a great amp. Not sure about the new Chinese reissue. I guess if they use the same original componens it should be as good as the original although having it now made in China seems to be cheapening the brand IMO.
