Want better sounding speakers?......Look at this

I've heard from a number of Quicksilver users that we did not allow enough break-in time and that Quicksilver needs 36-72 hours to begin coming into its own. Break-in is something we've all experienced, and I agree it is important and real for many components. The break-in we allowed in our listening was 12+ hours, clearly not as long as is being recommended. So, treat my comments as premature, if you will. Since I don't plan on spending more time re-doing our listening session with this longer break-in period, I've asked Audiogon to delete my comments, which they graciously did. If you decide to try this product, I suggest you be prepared to invest a lot more time for break-in than we allowed in order to try this in your own system.

I've been away for a while and have not followed the progression of these posts. I thought responses from Rpatrick were appropriate and I appreciated his feedback. Sharing different experiences is what this site is all about. What I see from Treyfrench saddens me.

My experience was very different than others were sharing, so I shared that different experience after clearly identifying that I used and had posted positively about a competing product (Walker Audio "Extreme SST", not the original SST that keeps being compared). The learning is that I should have been more attentive to the recommended break-in time instead of assuming the break-in times were likely to be similar. At 12+ hours, what I described is what was there. Would my opinion change after an additional 24 hours of playing time? I don't know, but as I mentioned above I don't have a desire to re-do the process to find out.

Nighthawk and Slipknot1, thank you for your kind words. I will simply comment for the record: I do know and respect Lloyd Walker; I do own a number of his products; I do value and respect his listening acuity; and I do think he is one of the great people advancing the art of audio reproduction today. And, that makes me one of several hundred, if not several thousand, similar audiophiles. But, I don't work for Walker Audio and have no financial relationship.

For me, I'm looking forward to returning to listening to some music. Hope you all can do the same.
