Quicksilver Mid Mono // Tube Amplifier Monoblocks

SOLD , now part of a Private Collection
Quicksilver Audio is known among audiophiles for two things - simplicity and performance. The no-nonsense Mid Monos deliver a clean 40 watts to each side, matching the warmth of tubes with state-of-the-art components. These amps are absolute workhorses, and this gently preowned pair will drive nearly any vintage speaker. At just over $1000, you would be very hard-pressed to find a better pair of monoblocks.

Liner Notes

Quicksilver’s Mid Mono amplifier is completely hand-wired and can use many different output tubes; the Mid Mono has a low loss output transformer, adjustable bias, and five-way gold-plated binding posts. Setting the bias is very simple: two screwdriver controls and pin jacks for any multimeter that reads millivolts. Power is 40 watts at 50% triode operation with the standard EL34s or KT88s, 45 watts with KT120s and 50 watts with KT150s.
