Title: Quicksilver and Transcendent amplifiers
Post by Ken Rafika on 02/18/22 at 13:18:27

Has anyone listened to any of the Quicksilver or Transcendent Sound OTL amplifiers? If so, how do they sound compared to Decware?

Its been years since I heard a Quicksilver amp, but I recall they had much more of a classic tube sound: big, warm bordering on lush, the bass was a little loose and the highs a little rolled off. In contrast I'd say my Decware amps are big, fast, transparent with just a drop of liquidity, with tight bass and extended highs. If I were to sum it up the Quicksilver amps sounded seductive but the Decware amps sound like real music.

I’ve got a Mini Torii, SE84UFO and Quicsilver Horn Monos…and many other amps. The Quicksilvers were the first amp I ever put in my system that truly replace the little Zen. Mine are not classic tube sound at all. It’s like a SE 84 with a bigger soundstage, more power, resolution etc. The companies are very much alike. You can talk to both owners on the phone, point to point wiring, all USA handmade etc.
