Thanks for the post, a good read and history. I am in my 50's and have been to a few dead concerts at the Garden in the late 70's and 80's. Don't know if it was the sound system or Acid, but they sounded great.
The only thing that caught my attention in the article is that the MC2300 are Solid State not tubes. I don't know of the MC3500?

That is Correct, the 2300 was SS, the MC3500 was all tooby, a 350 watt mono bloc. In the early 70's everyone was getting out of their Mc3500's for 2300's you could purchase a mono bloc Pr for less than( I did) one stereo 2300 , a lot less, if you heard the difference you would die. JC had explained to me it was about reliability, they could never get the SS to sound like the MC3500 tooby's, obvious if you compared the two.
Regards...
The WOS was only used for a short time - too labor intensive and expensive. Late 70s/early 80s would have been something else, maybe a Meyer system.
