My 2 cents...I have been holding onto my Threshold SA4E for a reason. It's a great amp at the cost. A Super amp at the time and still kicks butt. I had Jon Soderburg do his magic and completely go through the amp and upgrade stuff...really really nice. If some one would want to contact me...I just might let it go.....Mint...
Threshold, Levinson, Bryston, Krell, ?others? used amps
Hi All. I'm looking for a bang for the buck, diamond in the rough, 200-ish WPC power amp that will hang really tough with what's out there today in the vintage or recently new realm. Trying to keep $$$ under 2K. I currently own a Nakamichi PA-7 (Nelson Pass Stasis design). Looking for an amp that is great at doing the disappearing act, smooth sounding, but not colored, and with lots of authority. I realize that there are as many opinions on this as stars in the night sky but thought I would ask anyway. Been considering a Threshold S/500, Levinson 23.5, Bryston 4B family. Any standouts that I should try to find? Let's hear from you.
