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.

Agreed, the best place to hear the difference is at the source and move out from there. After having been a beta tester and doing many A-B B-A tests I have treated my whole
system from the power at the mains to the speakers. I am now going inside the various components and treating any plug-in connections whatsoever including fuses. When using QuickSilver Gold as above I have improved my video and sound by about 30 percent. Both the video and sound have blacker backgrounds and the dynamics are improved in addition to many more benefits such as sound staging, etc. This was tested in a very high-end Home Theater system that was already quite impressive yet I still achieved an amazing upgrade that I could not get any other way. Further, both the video and sound will get better with time even after the 3 day break-in period. The service and support has been great! In summary, highly recommended!

I did my whole system a couple of days ago and am thrilled by the additional resolution. Human voices became much more natural from the complete treatment. The soundstage was somewhat less coherent initially, but is now coming back into form nicely. It just gets better and better with time. Listening off-axis, in an adjacent room, provides a really profound experience in my environment.

I recently did almost every single connection in my sytem with Quicksilver "silver" and it was really time consuming. Guys, is the "Gold" version REALLY that much better? (I never even did an A/B with the silver, so I don't know whether it worked in my system. It's not just "plug and play", as you know). Thanks for the answer(s).

The difference is still in your wallet.

Yes, as a user with first hand experience with both the original QuickSilver and the new QuickSilver GOLD formulas, I can tell you from experience that the GOLD formula is worthy of your time to remove and re-apply.

I've cleaned and re-applied the new GOLD formula to every connection in my system, even my circuit breakers.

As I've said before, it is a no-brainer.

Best,

Jack
