I'd take the Threshold over the Forte or even a Threshold S200. I've actually never heard a Threshold amp before, but it's a Threshold - it can't suck, right?
Forte 1A or Threshold 400A
Hi. I changed my speakers and I sold my McCormack DeLuxe because the original board inside this amp was not safe for long term use.
As I now use speakers which have a sensitivity of 90 db/1W/1M, I have the choice of many amps available on the used market here. Forte 1A which needs new power supply caps, Threshold 400A which is fully rebuilt by a professional. The forte as is don't play at his best (it lacks definition) but I think that if properly upgraded it has some potential. The 400A price is 3 times the price of the Forte. I could also have a Classe Twenty five but I don't need 250W/C. Do someone have some experience with some of these amps ?
