quicksilver v4 monoblocks

I have been using the V4's for several years (fitted with KT-90's), paired with an Audio Research Ref 1 preamp and running Magnepan 3.6's, which demand significant, quality power. This is one of the few components I rarely think of upgrading. They are powerful, with excellent base and mid range, with a huge sound stage. I highly recommend them.

I am running vandersteen 5a's with them before that 2ce they are the one part of my system that has stayed the same. They are reliable work well and sound great. I have herd some different amps maybe even better but as stated again at 3 x the cost and then they have more tubes and are less reliable. I did traid in my single ended V4's and bought 3 balanced ones for my frount 3 channels, what does that tell you when my upgrade is the same thing. I highly recomend them. If you can do balanced go that way. Just keep a couple extra tubs on hand.

I don't know if it is still the case, but I'm pretty sure Richard Vandersteen used the Quicksilvers for his home system, if true, it tells you what a guy with a pretty good ear thinks of QS - hard to beat for the money when you need 100 or more tube watts. Music Reference RM200 would be the other amp I would consider in the same basic price category.
