RE: spectron musician or audio research vt 100 mk11 for maggie 3.6

The Quicksilver monos play so loud we cannot talk and be heard while music is playing. They play very loud. The tube preamp I used with the Spectron, Bryston, and ARC was the Quicksilver full function. The Quicksilver amps are the cheapest, full range Maggie driver I have ever heard. They list at 90wpc, but measure at about 120wpc at .3%THD. This out of only 2 KT88 tubes. I use JJ KT88's. The Winged C also work. The Sovtek are a bit softer, but run cool. I used Cardas maggy pins on the connections into the speaker from the silver wire. The silver wire was Vampire SL22 and made up of a twisted pair about 10" long. A sub is a must with the speakers as you know. The James EMB1200 and 1500 were wonderful. The JSL are also very good. Before dropping big dollars on an amp, get a set of Quickies and they will surprise you. There was an asylum member selling a pair. He was Jon at buzz1257@yahoo.com. He may have sold them or want to keep them. You might inquire. He wanted about 1100.00 If I recall. Happy searching, Jallen
