AUDIO RESEARCH VS VTL

Quicksilver is midfi. Not knocking it. Well made and has a huge following. But Quicksilver gear sounds like grandpa's old tube amp.

So this is how you NOT knock something?

Makes sense when you consider the source.......

Vac preamps offer remote thats not fully functional. Disappointing.

VTL cust service is not so good.  Dont work well with distributors i hear. Not many carry vtl.  Higher end preamp, series III woefully overpriced at $30k.

David and Troy... nearly as good, eh?  A ringing endorsement.  We're all looking for "nearly as good".

We sold VTL many years ago. They were a pain to deal with.

I thought this was a thread about amps julia
