I've got the 8417 monoblocks and there is some mechanical hum from the transformers. However, this is not translated to the speakers at all. You have to go up to the amps to hear it, but music remains completely unaffected. The amps sound fantastic as well. Since these were early Quicksilver stuff, I'm sure the Triodes being discussed have overcome any of those early kinks.
quicksilver amps and preamps any thoughts ??
any input on theses items, they look nice, am curious to the sound and reliability, thanks. Any comparisons to other equipment etc.
