Some questions about QS025 OPTs

[Frihed89]

I want to replace the DS025 OPTs in my Fi Audio 2A3 monos with the QS025 OPTs.  Don Garber said they were drop-ins for the DS025.  How does one get in touch with Mike Lafavre by email to ask some questions and place an order?  I can't figure out how to put a post on the AA Magnequest board and he only offers a US phone number as a contact point.  I'm in Europe and I'd prefer not to go to the expense of calling, unless I have to.

Is the QS025 a direct replacement for the QS025 in my amps?

Mike's email for product information and orders?

Acrosound at aol.com. He also had a board on this forum.

Thanks. I thought this was his board.

It is, I didn't know where I was

MQ also has a facebook page and that has been the most active web presence lately. Mike's daughter has been helping him with the business a bit and I think she monitors the FB page pretty regularly.

And do you mean ES vs. QS?  He had a pair of ES in stock.

Don Garber said QS.  Since Magnequest used to, and maybe still does, supply the bulk of OPTs (DS025) for the 2A3 monos, I am relying on him.  I will look at the FB page.  Thanks.

Thank you, Doc.

QS is the silver  coils version and is indeed a dropout for the DS. Shoot Mike an amail at [email protected]. He takes his time but will get back to you. Be warned: these will not come cheap.

Here's a cool spec page btw:
