The D-W Dreadnaught amp had just been outperformed by latest ARC amp in that store.
Perhaps you are thinking of the Dunlap-Clarke Dreadnaught initially recommended by D-W and was also represented in the states by none other than - Dan D'Agostino!
When the Threshold 800A was introduced about that time (also designed specifically for the D-Ws), Julian switched to using that for the shop and his XG-8s. It would dim the lights in his apartment upon power up! He later used a Stasis 2, both of which were a good bit better sounding than the Dreadnaught.
