| Tube Rolling Quicksilver v4, Preamp recommedation I would give Mike @ Quicksilver a call, as he will be more than happy to give you an "impression" of what to expect with different tubes. I ran my V4's with Ei KT-90 Type III's. Very linear, good bottom end control, liquid mids, not as warm as the... | |

| amplifier comparison Make sure you also look into the H2o amps. They are the only amp in this category to date that has been reviewed by 6moons.com and not been lumped into a "similar" sound category.www.h2oaudio.comreview of the H2o Signature monoblocks also on 6moon... | |
| unison intergrated what speakers? I did also have JM Lab Cobalt 807's hooked up to the Unison Unico as well. From there went to the Soliloquy 6.2's. The room was 11'6" by 11'6" with 8' ceiling. They did suprisingly well considering the square room, I would recommend the combo. Tho... | |
| unison intergrated what speakers? Soliloquy 6.2's or Meadowlark Kestrel 2's both work nicely with the Unison Unico. Used Synergistic Research Res. Ref. as well as Audience AU24 for cabling and IC's... both were fine. | |
| Does one NEED multiple amps? In the one amp crowd here too. Get a quality amp that does it all "right" and find the synergistic components in the rest of the system, ie preamp mating, cabling, etc. | |

| Yup Power Cords Snofun3 - My apologies for thinking you were using the SL3's... I must have misread your system thread for some reason, I didn't think you had any power cords listed either. I totally agree, as I stated in my last paragraph - I truly think a large... | |
| Yup Power Cords Zilla - You are on to something. Listen to your ears. Snofun3 - OMG! If you are a "naysayer" now, you may not be... just live in disbelief. If you really ARE curious IF powercords make a difference, you own a component that had the largest improve... | |
| What integrated amp to mach with Jolida JD100 cdp In the past I had mated the Unison Research Unico with the Jolida JD-100, wonderful match! Especially when I retubed both units with Mullard NOS military (CV4003 & CV4004) tubes. Very complimentary! Well worth looking into. If I ever build a s... | |

| cell phones and tubes I am not certain it is your tubes. I would think it is more likely your cables picking up the interference from the cell phone and transmitting through the speakers. Just my two cents... | |
