[QUOTE="Agaton Sax, post: 1075379, member: 2475"] I love old HiFi from when I was young but I have to agree with Achim here. 1. Nelson Pass left Threshold, the company he founded in 1975, before 1990. That is 31 years ago. Here you have high power transistor amps in their fourth or fifth decade of life. 2. My Threshold Stasis amp blew itself to pieces in 1993. It was so old then it could no longer be repaired. That was 28 years ago. Stasis circuitry is not straightforward. Even then mine used exclusive parts that could only be wrenched from the terminally sick Threshold Corporation by threats. Now Threshold is so long dead, even the skeleton has disintegrated. 3. My exasperated Tech to a customer: "XXXXX, you have to stop buying old high power transistor amplifiers!" Just saying. Your money. [/QUOTE]
