Threshold S300 Power Amp


QUESTION PLEASE:

Who might be using this amplifier in their 2 channel audio system? What do you like about this amp? And please share speaker cables and interconnects that work well with this amp. I have recently purchased this amp used and would also like to learn anything else I might need to know to take great care of this unit. Finally, where would I get a manual? Thank you so much for your responses.

I owned one briefly about 15 years ago. Unfortunately it suffered from a very wicked turn-off transient, about a minute or so after the power switch was turned off. I have no idea if that was a defect in the particular unit or characteristic of the design.

It was as if when the energy stored in its filter capacitors dissipated, the driver stages lost power before the output stages, resulting in an uncontrolled seemingly full-power bass transient. Hopefully your unit doesn't do that.

Thanks for the info and the kind comments, Unsound.

Glad to hear Bob's unit is working out well, and doesn't have that problem.

Best,
