The STASIS 8.0 & 7.0 amplifiers
The STASIS 8.0 stereo power amplifier represents the consummate balance of brute force and nuanced control. To some, its appearance may suggest an obsession with solidity and power. Its credentials in these areas are formidable - and readily apparent on first listen. High current capability, the importance of which in providing bass extension and tight control of the loudspeaker is often glossed over, is a quality that STASIS amplifiers deliver in real-world terms. The STASIS 8.0, for example, is able to provide staggering amounts of continuous current, enabling the 8.0 to drive the most demanding and power-hungry loudspeaker loads, without strain or stress. In this regard, not surprisingly, it is the heir to Threshold's legacy of high current, no-holds-barred performance. and is arguably Threshold's best stereo power amplifier ever. The STASIS 7.0 is a compact version of our more powerful STASIS 8.0, yet it sacrifices nothing when it comes to revelation of nuance and inner detail. While its outer appearance may suggest an obsession with solidity and power, the 7.0 shows its true sonic character in the listening room, where it is a sweet and detailed reproducer of music. This is not to overlook the 7.0’s capabilities in the areas of bass extension, quickness, and slam; its credentials in these areas are formidable, and immediately apparent. Still, the most noteworthy aspect of the 7.0’s performance is its gentle and honest reproduction of musical subtleties. In this respect, it is arguably the best stereo amplifier of its power rating that Threshold has ever produced. 8.0 Specifications more details >>
