aljordan, re: Silver 88

Alan, an overdue thanks for your further impressions of your new Silver 88 amps. I was away for a couple of weeks and that post is now on page 2 so it was only by accident I found it.

The impedance range of my Janszens is roughly from 4 to 10 ohms. Also the 87 dB rating seems to be conservative. According to David Janszen the settings I have with the controls brings it closer to 90 dB. So from all that, your comments, and the Quicksilver reputation in general, I believe it will be worth the effort to audition the Silver 88s.

As for the KT-150 tube option, I agree 10 watts may not mean much at that power range, but it couldn't hurt! And yes, I don't believe the KT-150 was an option when I contacted Mike.

It will be a few months but I will post impressions if I do have the chance to try them.
