Quicksilver Remote Control Line stage. Need feedback from current or past owners

I need feedback and comments about a product: "Quicksilver Remote Control Line Stage". Quicksilver is a small electronics company in San Marcos, California.  I cannot find many reviews on this line stage, except the Audioreview blog which are customer testimonials that are generallyold and possibly unreliable.

 A audio writer named Paiul Seydor wrote a review of the unit in TAS in 2002. He generally raved about its sound However the pre-amp  was updated in 2012, and there are no reviews or mention of whether those upgrades improved the overall sound quality.  So any information on the this pre-amp will be appreciated.   Thanks,  Jim

The QS remote linestage new or old always came with 6922 (6dj8) tubes. The remote only has a volume control. I have owned both remote and non remote.
The non remote used 12ax7 tubes and the new one uses 12at7.

You will never see a review on QS gear because Mike does not loan his stuff out to reviewers.
If you are looking for features like balance,mono,etc,you will not find them on the new QS preamp!
BTW, I own all QS gear and I think it’s all great sounding!
