Anyone compared the Quicksilver v4 monoblocks to the Atmo-shpere M-60 mk3 monoblocks?

I did this comparison about 7 years ago and on the "right" speakers, the M-60's produced a more open, natural, and pleasing sound.  The V-4's sounded slow and shut in by comparison.

Can't say what has changed with the newer versions.

no jim, the jolida was for my second system but when listened to in my main system was enough to get me hooked on  full tube sound. now i'm just looking into the possibility of replacing the usher amp.

I've never heard the V-4. I had my M-60 MKII's, which I thought were great to begin with, upgraded to MKIII. The difference is significantly improved bass and better dynamics.  I'd definitely put them at the top of my audition list.
