A question for fans of Threshold amplifiers


I'm very lucky to be able to hear numerous highly regarded solid state amplifiers in my home because I do professional reviewing.  In the last year I have been able to acquire three pristine re-capped E-series Threshold amplifiers.  These are a S/350e, S/550e, and a SA/4e.  When compared to some of the most highly regarded/high price amplifiers on today's market, not only did they hold there own, but particularly the S/550e/SA/4e, I found to be superior in my system.

It has been a long time since any threads have discussed any Threshold amplifiers at all.  So, I'm curious if there are any GON members who use any of the Threshold E-series amps and what your experience has been at comparing them to current production amplifiers.

Well this post is useless unless you are willing to name the "highly regarded" amps that you used to compare. Having heard a Threshold not long ago I have a hard time believing what you just posted.
Well I dont read reviews so checking on your in-house amps is a no-go. I believe it was one of the later e models but I will call him to check.

Your post may not invite an argument, but you used the words "some of the most highly regarded/high price amplifiers on today's market". My point is that it would be helpful to know what exactly are these most highly regarded amps. Depending upon which amps this may not be much of an accomplishment.

Not to worry I didnt expect an answer.
