AES Superamp or Quicksilver Mini-Mites?


I have a chance to pick up either an AES Superamp with upgraded Jensen caps, or a pair of the older Quicksilver Mini-Mites to power my 1977 Klipsch Cornwalls. Any guidance would be appreciated from users of both amps. I am concerned about overall sound and noise.

I have owned a pair of Quicksilver Mini-Mites for my midrange horn speakers on a tri-amped system for several months. These are fantastic little amps, extremely quiet, beautifully made, with a clean, dynamic, and musical sound. You can't go wrong with these amps for about $1,200 for the pair. I spoke with Mike Sanders, the owner of Quicksilver, originally about getting the more expensive horn amps for my horn speakers. Mike told me to get the less expensive Mini-Mono amps as the impedence rating on my electronic crossover would not have mated as well with the more expensive horn amps. Call Mike directly at Quicksilver. He's a great guy.
