Threshold T100 - opinions required

[Eisener Bart]

Gents,

I have opportunity to take 2 pcs of Threshold T100.
Why 2? Because I want to use it in bridge mode.

I have 2 questions:

1) opinion regarding sound;

2) there are so many speakers connection. If it will be shifted into mono - can I use 2 pair of speaker cables?

It's been some time since I last heard one, but it was a very good sounding amp; on the warmish side of neutral, good deep bass, good and detailed mids but highs a tad on the mellow side. Capable of driving pretty much anything even in stereo configuration ( I believe it pumps out 160 W in mono).
While generally reliable, there are quite a few stories out there of some of them breaking down and some further issues/problems with parts availability.

Thank you, John!

You're welcome.
Out of curiosity, was this a Nelson Pass design? Or was it produced after he sold Threshold in the late 90's?

No idea. :)

Pretty beasts, aren't they?

[Eisener Bart]

Yeah, but I had conversation with seller and refused from this intention.

No, it isn't a Nelson Pass design.
