Quicksilver audio silver 88 mono amps

I’m considering buying a set of these from the music room in Erie, Colorado. Does anyone have experience with this amplifier. My McIntosh MC75’s need some work and I’m going to have them refurbished to factory specifications. I want something in the meantime to use in my system. Thanks for your input.

OK, I first must admit that I have no experience with this amp. But, I will tell you that for fifteen years or so I have been looking to buy a pair of these. Keep in mind that Mike Sanders has discontinued a fair number of his prior products and this is one of them. These amps, more so than the other discontinued models, has quite a fan base if not a minor cult following. If your speakers are suitable-and I assume they are given your Mac75’s, you are going to get great sound. The price, imho, is kind of steep at only $1,000 off of msrp but this dealer (which I have now bookmarked, thanks!) must be factoring in their lack of current production and demand.
Let me put it this way-I would never snipe you-but if you don’t want them, pm me and I will call Erie and try to negotiate for them. Seriously.

+1. True on both counts. :), and they are gone, sold!

The reason the silvers command a higher price is the chassis, plugs and inputs on the back with power on the front. Same as Mono 120s have now. Install good signal tubes and great coupling caps, and they become long term keepers; helps to reduce amp rotation syndrome :) 

I owned the Silvers for 2 years and had many blown fuses with a pair of very sanely driven Spendor SP100s. The mids were good as expected, but the bass was very tube "plummy".
I had a much better run with an 8 watt 300b. Much better bass. I wasn’t very impressed with the Quicksilvers.

They're gone cause I bought them. 

Good for you and enjoy them.
