**Price:** 900 **Currency:** USD **Ships to:** USA I’m selling my much loved Quicksilver amp. It’s a fantastic amp in excellent condition. The coupling caps are upgraded with V-caps Odams. It has EI EL84 power tubes that only have around 30-40 hours on them and it still has the stock 12AX7B input tubes. There are a couple of dead spots in the volume pot there were there when I got it. They are just single points in the rotation that are dead so it’s not a big deal but I want full disclosure. Its a great sounding amp and pairs very very well with ZMFs and other dynamics. It also does well with the planars that I have tried it with. I honestly think its one of the best amps for the price that you can get. I do have the original box and packing materials. I’m only selling because I moved up in amps. My asking price includes paypal fees but I will discount for friends and family an prefer it given the tax reporting changes this year. Shipping will be on the buyer. ![IMG_0300](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/e/a/eacb830438d0f135fb9e4e971897f35e33db968b.jpeg) ![IMG_0301](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/8/b/8b9af819e735100d930dfb7740221bac4d5a9cfd.jpeg) ![IMG_0302](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/5/2/52d99e72ec37e44f640f564967593cbd80a15a60.jpeg) ![IMG_0303](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/4/8/48accfe00d1157fd18f3674021f37cbb1fb3468d.jpeg) ![IMG_0305](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/e/6/e66c60bdba481739a4a382025c3aff8d27578ca9.jpeg) ![IMG_9957](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/3X/3/5/35b6a3b2216c88ee8d7d906ca02203c3e9dc83cc.jpeg) ---

A nice sounding amp and when I had one on loan it worked great with my HD800s. CLWS ---

"but I will discount for friends and family " Yeah, that strips the buyer of much need protections. Nobody should seek such a discount. ---

I keep hearing these amps are pretty special and a bargain for the price. I’m in the queue for a new one from Quicksilver. Number 12 on their list pending their getting necessary parts. Curious who else has heard these amps. ---

I had one for about 6 months or so, and I only sold it because I upgraded to an Eddie Current Studio B - the QS is astonishingly good for the money (I particularly liked the synergy it had with my Utopias) - hard to believe he sells it for about $1000 new. Simple, easy to use, works great - some fortunate soul will be making a good purchase!! ---

A lot of people on this forum have done business with @rustyrat and would likely be comfortable using F&F. I do it myself with certain members here. Also he’s not requiring it, just offering it as an alternative. ---

I own a Quicksilver amp and it is a great sounding amp won’t sell mine until I receive my DNA stratus amp and maybe not.
