While a big proponent and owner of Quicksilver amplifiers I'm less enthusiastic concerning their pre-amps. While an excellent value overall considering their price and I would certainly concur that the build quality is beyond reproach, IMHO there is an overly rich character to the presentation with QS preamps. It may be a matter of taste for sure but I would say "not my cup of tea", YMMV. This would apply to the remote and non remote (at $500 less a better value and IMO preferable over the remote unit) and the full function unit with phono stage which has been discontinued. I have listened extensively to all of these units in familiar systems FWIW.
For the money it is difficult to imagine that you will find anything much better but with a larger budget you certainly will. Just a different perspective that isn't really a knock because Mr. Sanders overall offers great value/performance compared to much of the competition .
