QuickSilver GOLD

This outstanding product has received a few mentions here at Audiogon already, but it really deserves a thread of it's own IME.

It is a contact enhancement paste that delivers a positively HUGE performance boost. I am a beta tester and have enjoyed the benefit of this product since September without one glitch. I liked original formula QuickSilver, but this premium formulation is vastly superior to the original.

Cost is about $150, but one package will go a long, long way and it would be very feasible to split the cost between multiple enthusiasts.

I have done a lot of tweaking in my day, but if I were limited to just one, this would be it without question. I highly doubt there is an audiophile, the world over, that wouldn't fully appreciate the benefit this product delivers.

Take note too that their audio cables are pretty impressive as well.

Given my experience with contact enhancers, I can see that this might be a worthwhile product. The one thing I can't figure from the website, though, is the difference between the regular Quicksilver and the Gold version. If the regular version gives you 100% contact on the jacks, and that's the main reason for using this product, how can the Gold version improve on 100%?

I picked some up at THE Show at a decent price, but am yet to try it out. Oddly enough, I picked up some SST Extreme at last year's CES from Lloyd Walker and I am yet to try that out either. What a slack-arse I am.

You've never heard the concept of 110% then I take it. ;-)

I assume though that the improvement is due to a difference in what the contact material is made out of. I can't emphasize enough how spectacularly effective this product is.
