   A bit, actually.  Of late I've been on audioasylum more than here, but I   
   certainly don't mind coming to some sort of conclusion with this thread, and I   
   realize there is more work to do.  I recently acquired an S-360, a rare   
   monoblock Sherwood meant to    
   turn the S-4400 unit into a complete stereo amp/preamp, and I will be diving   
   into that soon.   
      
   Are there any particular questions still outstanding that you had?   
      
      
   Cheers.
