I have been running my T200's in mono mode
330 watts per channel into 8ohm's and couldn't
disagree more with the myth that the pre T amps
were better.Email Jon Soderberg who was part of
Threshold both with Nelson Pass and after he
left and he will give you an honest answer.From
my personal use with the T200's,I hear details
and recording error's that I never knew were
there when using other amps. When you can hear
the saliva seperating from the singer's lips
and the sound of movement of performer's on
the stage,it's incredible. Jon stated to me
in person that the T200 is the most detailed
amp Threshold ever made, and that the stasis
designs were more laid back.I believe that
it is a listener's own preference to which
type of sound he or she prefer's, but there
is no way that the pre T series is better,
just differences in sound.I'm personally
running mine with cardas golden reference
I/C's and neutral reference biwire to aerial
10 t's through my Cal pre-pro to a meridian
508.20 and I have no reason to change other
then Jon advising me that the T400 or
800's power supply is larger and would be
better to power my 10 t's. According to
Jon the T200 was designed to power Martin
Logans current speaker at that time.Hope
this has been of some help, and from what
another audiogoner told me during a phone
conversation, was that he talked to someone
unhappy with the sound after sending his
T series to the new Threshold for the change
there offering for the T200 and 400 amps.As
always, I'll end by saying that all
opinions, are just that. Listen to as many
amps as you can and then decide with your
ears what is best for you.
