Obviously you weren't around back then.  Glass break detectors of that era consisted mostly of shock sensors.  The most popular was
a little device called the "Wiz".  It was awful.  I tried a few of them and wound up pulling them out after a while.

I also used a few Litton shock processors and sensors some years later.  They were ok for protecting masonry walls but for glass
breakage they tended to false unless they were set so low that the protection was questionable.

Finally acoustic glassbreaks came out.  The first ones were as bad as, if not worse than shock sensors.  Try to find someone with
one of the old Bluegrass detectors.  You'll learn a few things.

The Z1100 came out a long time after the MPI-25 and its successors.  If you had more experience you wouldn't need to ask.

"Buyers", you moron.  I occasionally speak to the people who bought my business.  These were friends in the trade whom I knew and
worked with for many years before I decided to sell.

You really ought to take something for that cough.

Heh.  I take my cars to the dealers I bought them from.  I do the same thing with my bikes.  I like DIY electronics but anything
with an engine I'm not interested in servicing.
