Nelson,

Thanks for the interesting information!!

This link appears to have an error in file size since it downloads in 1 second (even though it says the file is larger) and it won't open:

This second link appears to download ok but then won't open using standard tif filters... I suspect a corrupted tif file...

All others work fine...

Any others out there having similar problems?????

Thanks again for the info,
Nelson Pass
They should work now.

The Telarc setup appears to be in a motel room, no? The position of the amplifier in front of the air conditioner register may be purposeful.

Telarc was actually the first place I heard of Threshold. In the liner notes from Empire Brass' "Class Brass" is printed:
quote:
Power Amplifier: Threshold SA/12e Stasis Pure Class A
This is probably a post-Pass amplifier, but it is nevertheless remarkable for me, because at that time I was keen to find out what all this "stasis" and "class A" business meant. Which is how I got to reading Horowitz and Hill, and Jung, et. al. and building my own equipment.
Nelson Pass
No, it was one of mine. Post Pass would usually be the
"T" series and anything with IGBT devices.

Nelson, that is one groovy suit in the ion cloud. :eguitar:
Nelson Pass
I got married in that suit, and I still wear it, but not often.

:cool:
HarryHaller
Not to the ion cloud I hope.......
Nelson Pass
No, I married the lady who tested all the Heil diaphragms
at ESS.
:bigeyes:
HarryHaller
And now, like most husbands, you test her patience I'll bet....
Nelson Pass
To make life easier, I converted these to JPEG.

Who is the babe on the far right in the 800a review article. She looks like a groupie I hooked up with once at a Dead concert:devilr:
Nelson Pass
I don't know. She doesn't look like a twirlgirl to me.
:spin:
yldouright
Well, she looks like a "dead ringer" for her. I would be more sure if she were facing away from the camera:devily:
