Quicksilver with Walnut Faceplates at Aural HiFi

@oddiofyl I doubt Mike will change anything for aesthetic reasons and I’m surprised he’s on board with the wood.

Yep. Spoke with my local dealer about this recently, who’s been selling QS in the USA as long as anyone. He only carries Audio Note and QS, that’s it. He’s had older QS MX amp, preamps on trade-in with fancy faceplates. Looked nice. And, asked him about gear I’ve come across that Mike use to modify, and no longer does either. My dealer commented about him not wanting to also have to fuss with getting the faceplates absolutely perfect. Time consuming too. I spoke to Mike about this once myself. Seems he just wants to build no-nonsense value gear that works well, with less returns around the world, and sells for its sound. I actually kinda prefer my stealth function-first QS Mono 120 amps as-is. Any amazing buy! 

Yeah. He is one of the most no BS guys in the biz...others should take note.

I love my Mid Monos.   I am on the fence whether to sell or keep since taking them out of service. They are such a great value.   I'd be hard pressed to find better for a system in another room someday.?.

As Gram used to say, to each his own.  These units are decidedly utilitarian and I can admire them for that.  Very Tekton-like.  All your audio bucks going towards maxing out the sound quality/dollar ratio.  For me, the walnut faceplate seems out of place with these units.

Audio Connection has been offering Quicksiler 

Audio for over 30 years.Mike Sanders is a true 

perfectionist. When folks get tired of their supposedly 

better systems many realize time to go back full circle to that Quicksilver performance.
