Quicksilver amp owners

mid monos quicksilvers ,what cabling is the best to put them together with triangle antal?

i just bought a pair of mid monos. according to mike sanders, they work well with electrostatics. regarding cap changes, why not use an oil filled caps ?

i also received advice about substituting gold lion kt 88 in lieu of el 34s. has anyone used kt 88 with that amp ?

I have a quad of Gold Lion KT88 re-issue. I did not like them in a KT-88 power amp I own.I'm going to roll them in the mid monos and I'll repert back. These amps take all kinds of power tubes, I'm using the the EH fat bottles now and they are wonderful.

i won't come near an electro harmonix tube. they are the worst tubes i have ever heard. i have spoken to two manufacturers who won't use them in their designs. they are lean and mean.

why did you dislike the kt 88 gold lion reissues ??

They sounded lean and mean,no kidding.

Even after a 60 hours break in, most likely the amp and tubes didnt jive well together,I just put them in the Quicksilvers,to early to have much to say. I did notice some more power. Not as edgy and lean as with the ASL.
Could be they need a couple hundred hours break in too.
What newer tubes do you prefer?
