Let's All Support the Audio Asylum Tsunami Relief Auction!

Xtreme AV Introduces...

Audio & Video Contact Enhancer

Transform Your System… Electrify Your Audio & Video Experience!!!

The Problem

Machined and/or plated electrical contacts, when viewed under a microscope, actually have a “rough” surface finish… allowing only about 10% of the surface area to make contact and transfer vital energy to your electronic components… be it AC Power, Audio or Video signals. In addition, these “rough” contacts cause micro-arcing to take place… generating “noise”… which is then transferred and amplified in your system along with the complex, multi-frequency Audio and Video signals – resulting in a dramatic loss in resolution and a less natural 2-dimensional presentation. It doesn’t have to be this way!

The Solution

QuickSilver Audio and Video Enhancer… a revolutionary product that can MAXIMIZE surface area contact (to nearly 100%) for maximum unimpeded energy transfer… while MINIMIZING micro-arching noise… allowing one’s Audio and/or Video system to function at its full potential! The end result… increased macro and micro-detail resolution and a lowering of the noise floor in both Audio and Video applications… resulting in the most 3-Dimensional audio soundstage presentation… as well as the most vibrant, colorful and life-like 3-Dimensional video presentation imaginable. QuickSilver MUST BE seen and heard to be believed… as this simple-to-use, next generation product can enhance the listening or viewing pleasure of most any Audio and Video system! Guaranteed!

QuickSilver Contact Enhancer…

The Next Best Thing to Hard Wiring Your Entire Audio or Video System!!!

About QuickSilver

At Xtreme AV, our design team set out to develop the finest SuperConductive™ Audio and Video Contact Enhancer… cost no object. While developing QuickSilver, we tested 6 types of conducting substances… and 5 different carrier fluids. Our team selected a proprietary, nearly 4N pure, micron-sized SuperConductive™ Silver powder… which is then cryogenically treated before being suspended in a proprietary, custom formulated, antioxidant enriched plant-derived fluid – which was chosen for its dielectric characteristics, heat tolerance and exceptional musical presentation qualities. Once satisfied with its sonic and video presentation qualities (actually we were quite amazed and “shocked” by what we discovered), we then obtained an EXCLUSIVE for key QuickSilver materials limited to our Audio and Video Contact Enhancer application worldwide markets.

Then after comparing our QuickSilver to several respected “competitive” Silver-based products in direct A/B evaluations, our designers and Beta Testers unanimously agreed that QuickSilver is vastly superior… in both Audio and Video applications… to any Silver-based contact enhancer or contact treatment on the market today! We are confident enough to claim that when compared to QuickSilver… there is NO competition!!!



QuickSilver vs. the Competition


The great news is that our next generation… cryogenically treated breakthrough product is affordably priced… at only $64.95 MSRP for each complete QuickSilver Contact Enhancing Kit… representing a truly electrifying and “shocking” value for all Audio and Video enthusiasts worldwide!

"On 75 WPC monoblock valve amps… we then took the tubes out again an applied the QuickSilver enhancer (to the EL34 tube pins), and the results were dramatic! Instruments just blossomed and came from nowhere (I say nowhere because they weren't there before). It easily outperforms the Walker SST. I can safely say that to these old ears (54), the difference was not subtle, but equivalent to a really good component change.”
Keith Cheal · Angelsound Audio · Herts, UK

QuickSilver® Dramatically Improves the Audio & Video Experience for Any System!

"For the audio, it has added finer detail. Better dynamics both micro and macro. Deeper and wider sound stage – with the most pleasing effect of making listening to music more emotionally fulfilling and involving. On the video side, as you know, I am an ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) video display calibrator, so I take my video as seriously as I do my audio. I found that after I treated the component video cables, I had to readjust the color level on my $30k InFocus ScreenPlay 777 Projector (lowering it by 30% from a setting of 50 to a setting of 35), and tint levels on the video display as the signal strength was quite a bit stronger and the color was too saturated. The 3D effect for hi-def in particular is noticeably better.

To sum up… I feel this silver treatment is a must have for ANY system – no matter the cost – as it will take it to the next level for next to nothing cost wise. I found no down side to this treatment and will recommend it to all my customers, and use it in all of my new systems and installs.”
Allen Fleener · Affordable Home Theater · Riverside, CA

Audio Benefits

In Audio, QuickSilver allows your electronic components to function at their full potential. The increase in resolution and the lower noise floor allows the musical presentation to become more natural and relaxed… warmer and fuller… more transparent… open and “airier”… more dynamic and “live” sounding… clearer but with less glare or “edginess” – it’s just simply more emotionally involving and musical!

The high frequencies will become more extended… without “over-brightness” that can lead to listener fatigue. The midrange will be more transparent, sweeter and just blossom… with increased resolution that will allow the listener to hear the previously missing textures of your favorite vocalists. The bass will become more extended and controlled… and pack that dynamic punch.

And the soundstage will become significantly more open, 3-Dimensional and holographic… with a huge increase in soundstage height, width and depth! And at the same time, images will become better focused on the stage… and take on their own 3-Dimensional space and sense of “air”. You can now “Remove the veil… Feel the Energy… Experience the Emotion in Music… and Be There” …as if you were at the live event!

Video Benefits

With Video and Home Theater systems, the sound improvement will be matched by equally dramatic improvements to video picture quality. Most all users notice an improvement in overall realism and picture quality. Video images will be more brilliant and vibrant…cleaner, clearer and sharper! The overall contrast will improve… with blacks becoming blacker… and whites becoming whiter! And best of all… you will get a better sense of “realism”… as images take on a more natural 3-Dimensional… holographic quality.

In fact, the overwhelming majority of users need to adjust their display’s color and sharpness levels down a few notches! And all users agree that analog Cable or Satellite TV images now appear to be much closer to DVD quality… and amazingly more 3-Dimesional! And digital playback such as DVD, digital Cable, digital Satellite and HDTV images on HDTV compatible Projection, Plasma or LCD displays become extraordinarily holographic and life-like! You can now see quality differences in the production cameras’ lenses and focal depth!

QuickSilver… is almost like having HDTV in a bottle!!!" · Craig Sata · Fort Collins, CO

"First of all, I want to thank you for the opportunity to audition your latest creation – the QuickSilver Contact Enhancer. What can I say about my experience with QuickSilver Contact Enhancer… simply two words. Holy-cow! Just after the initial break-in period, I experienced a whole new level of quietness previous not heard before from my audio system. What were the pros and cons to using this product? Well on the pros-side, there are just too many performance improvements to list. What are the cons? By NOT using QuickSilver, I simply wasn’t getting everything that I paid for from my audio system!!! Thanks for developing another fantastic audiophile product!"
Aaron Hardy · Puyallup, WA

"Anyway, skepticism firmly in place, I listened to an intro I know well on a finely engineered recording I've played quite a few times in the past week – and yes that sounded as detailed as I could imagine it could be. I then applied the QuickSilver paste to one connection only, on one end of the XLR digital cable that already has silver pins. I replayed the track: the additional detail and resolution was astonishing! Not really subtle – but new, subtle details became immediately obvious.”
Stuart Smith · Audio Atmosphere · Staffordshire, UK

Initial Audio Asylum Post: "First impressions (Video only). I've been curious about the various contact enhancers available, given the positive claims and testimonials. I'd read over at Audiogon that those who have compared the numerous brands available have chosen QuickSilver as the best.

Well today my QuickSilver Audio and Video Contact Enhancer arrived. I've only had enough time to use in our Video system. In a word… "WOW"! I had to reconfigure the settings on our Sony VPH1272 projector. Immediately, I noticed better definition, much higher contrast, brighter white level, and the colors seemed more real, more clear and realistic. All this with just applying it to the S-VHS cables and the RGB BNC connectors on both the Sony projector and the line doubler.

I'm going to tackle the audio system this weekend and will report back my findings then. I understand that there is break in time involved with this conductive contact enhancer, so I imagine that what I'm seeing will only get better. As it is, without any break in, I'm now noticing minute details in the few test movies we've tried, for example, noticing that a suit was really pin striped where before it appeared a solid color; Noticing minute details in the back ground which were hazy before. This stuff is really increasing the resolution! While I haven't tried QuickSilver on audio yet, I strongly recommend it for any Video system. If it works as well on Audio as it does on Video, expect another QuickSilver praise thread...”

Second Audio Asylum Post: “Okay, I admit it, I tried the Quick Sliver, (QS from here on), on my single ended connections between the TRL player and the TRL GTP-4 pre-amp. THESE CONNECTIONS ONLY. This is important. I left the player on repeat and left it for a full 36 hours (also important).

Initial thoughts: I was a little scared. The first song I'd played was "North Dakota" by Lyle Lovett. He has a little lisp in his voice and right off the bat, this became MUCH more evident. It almost made it stand out, where before it blended, or perhaps better said, was masked into the mix. I played Ben Harper's beautiful singing on the traditional Gospel tune "Ready" just to make sure it was just that song. It was.

Okay, then I left it on repeat for 36 hours. Well, at 5 AM this morning, our Golden Retriever needed to go outside, and why not go listen to music? No distractions and the power is cleaner (fewer users, etc.). Drum roll please.... You have a real winner, Brian."
Jack Seaton · Spokane, WA

"I first wiped off all the SST in my system with some Kleenex. No rubbing alcohol, DeoxIT...nada (for those inmates that will claim cleaning off the contacts well made all the difference). I applied it to all my AC plugs, IEC male pins, interconnect pins, outside the female RCA barrels, and all the contact points inside my Monster HTPS 7000 (shut up I didn't know better at the time). Since QuickSilver is not as thick as SST, it is more difficult to apply evenly. It takes a little more care to ensure an even coat, but you'll learn how to apply it more efficiently with practice.

I sampled very different genres of music. First was Pantera's Vulgar Display Of Power, next was various Trance, Drum and Bass, and House cd's, and lastly was Sarah McLachlan's Surfacing album. All displayed improved bass response, the noise floor dropped another level, and the instruments seemed to have more seperation from each other. The biggest improvement was on Sarah McLachlan's voice. It sounded so real like I was at a show! Awesome stuff. I won't get into the super fine details as you've all heard it a million times before. Just know it does what SST does only better. I am not as much an audiophile as videophile, and video is where Quick Silver REALLY flexes it's muscle.

HOLY COW! Video performance from DVD's, standard cable, and especially video games from my PS2 was out of the park! The resolution and clarity of the picture was greatly enhanced as was color and that sense of 3D. Images seemed to seperate more from their backgrounds. QuickSilver also cured two issues that had been ailing my video set-up. It somehow greatly reduced "Red Push" coming from my JVC HD CRT set, and eliminated the white, fuzzy "halo" effect around small white or yellow text (i.e., the ticker at the bottom on the screen on ESPN). And Madden 2005 never looked so good! All my reference games and DVD's improved and left me with one big fat grin on my face. Things have only improved over the weekend as the product has settled in.

I could not be more impressed with this new product! Brian and the people at Xtreme AV deserve immense success for creating this fantastic product. I have the utmost respect for Lloyd Walker and his products that I've listened to, but he should take notice. QuickSilver SLAYS standard SST for the same price and is half the price as his SST Extreme. Do yourselves a favor and pick this stuff up. A cryo'd silver contact enhancer for $64.95 is a no-brainer to me.”

QuickSilver Break-In Period

While Audio and Video performance improvements will be seen and heard immediately after QuickSilver treatment, full Audio and Video benefits are realized after 72 – 96 hours of break-in time where an electrical signal is flowing through the treated connectors. Connectors carrying higher current signals break in more quickly, while lower current carrying signals take a bit longer to break in – up to 14 days.

After about 72 – 96 hours of break-in time, the sound will improve considerably and just “blossom”… taking on a more relaxed, natural presentation while still remaining highly resolving. Video images will improve immediately, but will also look even cleaner, sharper, more vibrant… and take on a more 3-Dimensional lifelike look after 7 – 14 days of break-in. Please be patient… and allow QuickSilver to fully break-in for at least 96 hours before doing any audiophile critical listening evaluations.

Note: Since QuickSilver works on a micron level, you may connect and disconnect cables up to FIVE times before one needs to first clean and then reapply QuickSilver to these connectors.

QuickSilver Mixing & Storage Information

QuickSilver is formulated using an EXCLUSIVE nearly 4N Silver in a proprietary, antioxidant enriched high dielectric oil. Separation and/or settling of the Silver from the oil may occur over time. Be sure to MIX QUICKSILVER BEFORE EACH USE to a uniform consistency with the narrow end of the Kit’s Mixing Spatula. Wipe the excess paste off the spatula first with the Retractable Brush, then with a paper towel, and place the cleaned spatula in the Kit for future use. For storage, Xtreme AV recommends that you store QuickSilver in its convenient plastic case in the refrigerator when not in use. Remove QuickSilver for at least 1-hour prior to use and mix before QuickSilver application.

30-Day Conditional Money-Back Guarantee

After QuickSilver treatment, we believe you will be amazed with the improvement in your Audio and Video experience – evidenced by increased resolution and natural, lifelike 3-Dimensional presentation qualities. If not, you may return the QuickSilver Kit and unused portion of QuickSilver to the Xtreme AV Dealer where it was purchased (or to Xtreme AV) WITHIN 30 days from the date on your receipt for a full refund of your purchase price (not including shipping, handling and insurance charges). So what’s the catch? All we ask is that you allow no less than 14 days for QuickSilver to completely break-in… along with a thoughtful evaluation.

“Unbelievable. I didn't think your Xtreme X4 interconnects could reveal any more detail – until I pasted them. After about a day of burn-in, the first thing I noticed was an improvement in bass. Bass notes on Patricia Barber's rendition of Autumn Leaves became fuller and more defined. The stand-up bass solo grabbed my attention like never before. It didn't just affect the low end though, as the midrange seemed to become more expressive and the top end has an even sweeter sparkle. All of this with no added glare or bloat.

On to video... I hit the coax on my analog CATV, as well as the TV’s power cable, and to be honest, I was totally surprised that it made such a huge difference. The improvement in detail resolution and color vibrancy was truly amazing! And now, the picture looks so 3-dimensional and lifelike – the depth of the image looks extraordinarily real! I had similar results when I used it on my DVD video outs.

The way I look at it, the picture looks so good for only a small investment of $64.95, that I will wait to upgrade to Digital Cable and HDTV Plasma or LCD monitors for a couple of years and take advantage of their continuing price drops – saving me thousands of dollars! To me, this is almost like having HDTV in a bottle!!! You seriously have a winner on your hands with the QuickSilver paste!”

A Message from the Inventor…

If you own an inexpensive Audio System… or just a plain old non-HDTV TV… QuickSilver is GUARANTEED to take it to the Xtreme! And if you own more expensive Audio or Video electronic components… QuickSilver is an absolute necessity… allowing your equipment’s full potential to be realized!!!

I know there may be many skeptics out there… who have tried many different Audio performance enhancing tweaks that have claimed to be able to "transform" one's audio system… only to be disappointed. I know, because I also have tried many of these "tweaks" with bold claims. All I can say is that if you are serious about your Audio and Video… you owe it to yourself to try QuickSilver. While the performance enhancemets sound almost "too good to be true"… QuickSilver is GUARANTEED to deliver!

In fact, in all my years in high performance Audio and Video… I have never found such an inexpensive product that can make such a significant and dramatic improvement in one’s Audio or Video System. Period.

Seeing and hearing is believing…

Respectfully,
