Top resistors
Many threads with opinions on boutique coupling capacitors, but very little consolidated information on the sonics of resistors. Anyone care to share their thoughts on the attributes of their favorite brands & types for specific tube and SS applications? How much of a difference does a good resistor make?
My interest in the topic increased after recently installing the latest Texas Components nude Vishay TX2575 in several SS and tube phono & LS components. This was a proverbial "Ah-ha" moment-- a stray resistor dropped into signal path here or there, surprising with an improvement that equalled or surpassed the impact of a switch to a top coupling cap like V-Cap or Mundorf.

@zipost i tried MP-915 12W 1%, they are very detailed but unnatural too compressed and with closed ambience effect. are good if you have a very dull system. never tried Vishay Nude Bulk Foil, probably caddock are real better, but in general i don’t like in crossover foil resistors. i prefer much foil resistor in electronics. ;) |
