Quicksilver audio silver 88 mono amps


I'm considering buying a set of these from the music room in Erie, Colorado.  Does anyone have experience with this amplifier.  My McIntosh MC75's need some work and I'm going to have them refurbished to factory specifications.  I want something in the meantime to use in my system.  Thanks for your input.

...has quite a fan base if not a minor cult following.


+1. True on both counts. :), and they are gone, sold!

The reason the silvers command a higher price is the chassis, plugs and inputs on the back with power on the front. Same as Mono 120s have now. Install good signal tubes and great coupling caps, and they become long term keepers; helps to reduce amp rotation syndrome :) 
I owned the Silvers for 2 years and had many blown fuses with a pair of very sanely driven Spendor SP100s. The mids were good as expected, but the bass was very tube "plummy".
I had a much better run with an 8 watt 300b. Much better bass. I wasn’t very impressed with the Quicksilvers.
@zardozmike please let us know what you think of your new amps.

Quicksilver amps are all very good sounding and outstanding values, IMHO.

Yes Mike has updated over the years but he’s never made anything you’d regret buying if you like pure tube amps. Running a powered sub is always a good solution to bass issues with tube amps.

I have a pair of Quicksilver Silver 60s, he only made them for 2 years. I’ve enjoyed them for 15 years.

TMR tend to have some pretty high prices. I just bought an amp from them about 3 weeks ago and it was priced at max market value. The good news is it looks like it was never used and I'm happy with it.
