Lets talk Pre-amps

Thankee Jim! It's hard to tell from the pics I looked at, my SAE A202 will not take spades, that's the reason for my Q.

The A202 was the later Japanese SAE was it not? Computer Direct?

Yep, Computer Direct Dual High Resolution after James went on to G A S , still a bad boy, the transformer is an oblong 0 in solid iron with heat fins on top. I played it hard full range with the older ML Sequels and it lacked just the final oomf, I don't play Lee loud, but loud! I'd say it 'doubles down' in the ohm loading as well as the older SAE amps will. With the AR T-40's I've never heard a clipping like sound with the 200w +3 led light flickering or even steady

It's almost 30 years old and still makes me love it more and more, 1st separate amp I bought new, I hope it handles the new Summit panels (they don't suffer no fools) , if not, I know the 2400 will with class and James' Good looks!!

I know this forum likes a certain kind of amp and I just want to stir things up with my love, and I have many, I love my forgiving partner John and our 'girl' Katie, my love of the 'slabs' and the power they crave, vinyl...played on a Thorens...SAE gear!!

Craig, am I mistaken or didn't John have a bike?

Suzuki Katana 1100, Electric windshield, '69 BSA Chopper, Honda Nighthawk and a Honda Shadow, he's a Harley guy at heart tho!

 

[Fairchild]

That is a nice stable of bikes.

Around here we have this alien problem.

LMFAO!!!! I can't wait for him to see that, he loves that guy with the freaky hair, watches the show religously!!

Could they have found a better guy to propose a crazy theory? I don't think so myself.
