Reports

• Rainer Kruse at hifi-classic-reparatur.de (April 2, 2014), see also link below:

"The Stasis circuit developed by Threshold, guarantor for load stable power supply in the low impedance power range, worked in the well-known power amplifiers, and in the flat receivers!". The SR-2,3 and 4 receivers, the SR-4 even remote controlled, had a good sounding phono section (the 2 and 3 unfortunately only MM) and of course an excellent tuner. Sound-wise, these parts tend to have a natural low and wide, rather than high, stage. An SR-4 sounds much more natural than, say, an Accuphase E-206, which plays louder and bigger, but much less musical. Details are beautifully resolved with an emphasis on subtleties and textures, analytical in the best sense. ... Accuphase E-206 are well placed, just not rubble. ...
The successor series, Ta 1-4 had higher output and was remotely controllable from the 2-4. The 4er is somehow oversized and less successful. Cost pressure led to the relocation of production and in the course of the series to quality problems.Look out for Made in Japan! Today, after more than 20 years, if you get your hands on a semi-maintained unit, they run flawlessly. A manufacturing quality that the Europeans and Americans were running behind!
... the newer ones from the series Amp 1, 2 , Receiver 1,2,3,4 and CD Player with music bank system.the successor series, with other design, MB-1-4 Receiver 1-4, with orange lighting, is almost identical in construction. These Serin are often badmouthed, because they were produced in a time of a declining HIFI market. Despite the use of sometimes simpler components, these units are excellently made, well designed and make stress-free music! More so than many units from that era. The amplifiers with the amplification principle developed by Nakamichi himself are musically, warmly and bass-strongly tuned, owed to the absolute priority of the CD-its time. Unfortunately, they are no longer as stable under load, but still very good! ... " The following CD Player Mb-S 1-4 series is unfortunately only everyday goods, mechanically and sonically significantly worse!r.s
