@devilboy I’m actually using the Quicksilver HP amp with the Aryas. Prior to the QS amp, I used them with Naim Unitiqute, AAA THX 789 (now returned), and iFi Micro DSD Black Label. A few issues I had with the Aryas was that sometimes they tended to sound just a little on the thin side, slightly distant and the bass heft was lacking every so slightly. The QS amp addressed each and every concern and then some. I absolutely love the hefty, lush and rich sound I’m getting now. But by far the biggest improvement was the quantity and quality of bass -- these amps take it to a whole new level and make them more musical than before. Also, I feel the midrange and vocals are more intimate than before. I moved from the fifth or sixth row in the auditorium to third or second which is about as close as I want to go with the Aryas.
But keep in mind that none of the other amps I tried before were particularly high end. Plus I’m very partial to the tube sound. So take that with a grain of salt. YMMV.
