Our infatuation with Quicksilver Audio is almost clinical, and sometimes we just can't help ourselves. With their renowned Line Preamplifier, we decided to create walnut faceplates to give it a bit more mid-century modern flair, and with this small change we're even more deeply in love with this iconic preamp. So much so, that we decided to extend this design over to Quicksilver's clear, yet powerful KT Mono amps, to create a set that's as cohesive visually as it is acoustiically. The Quicksilver Audio Aural Walnut Edition.

- Liner Notes
The latest version of the Quicksilver Line Stage offers a simplified switching and signal path. With almost 10 times the output current capability of the previous Line Stage it will drive any amplifier input impedance and interconnect cable with ease. The new Line Preamplifier embodies the Quicksilver philosophy “simplicity is the essence of good engineering”. Also available with home theater pass-through which routes the Video inputs directly to the preamp outputs when the preamp is off.
