Capacitors for BAT VK-60
Hello Sherod, my source for the caps is in Singapore. Anyway, Solen does not manufacture more than 0.82uF for the 450Vdc versions. If you need 1uF and above, I guess you can try paralleling them (when you parallel caps, the capacitance add up, eg ...

If you feel that V-caps TFTF are too high an investment, check out the Solen FEP TFTFs. http://www.solen.ca/caps/fet.htmDo note that these are the green ones, using same TFTF Tin Foil Teflon Film construction. They are also about 30% smaller than ...

Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Merelyok, yeah I know what you mean, geez we have the same combo. You know what, if Robert could just spec up the cabinet of the Adagio ver.2 (2" MDF + extra bracing anyone?!), that would probably make it nearly perfect. Right now I still think th...

Response34, i am using a caps modded Almarro 318B to drive the Adagios. :) No problem with the bass unless if it goes pretty loud then you'll hear soft clipping!

Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Merelyok, i am using Blackgate NX 4x 220uF in Super E paralleled config as input bypass caps. http://www.blackgate.jp/ebg6.htmCoupling caps i am using 2x 0.22 and 2x 0.33 Mundorf Supremes. If you prefer a slightly warmer sound and not too particul... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Hi merelyok, Yup you in SG too? I use the same handle/nick in the local forums (echoloft/Xtremeplace). : ) I guess you'll be getting the same stuff from the same dealer? Cables....Nothing special, just van den hul CS-122 single run (well the Adagi... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Response34, I am running the 6C33C too but in SET with my Almarro 318B (NFB) into the Adagios, the sound is really good, perhaps the sound is a bit on the warm side as the lower midrange is quite pronounced but nevertheless it is extremely musical... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
I just mated it yesterday with an Almarro 318B (18W SET), currently rolled with Sylvania VT-229/6SL7GT and Sylvania VT-231/6SNGT as input/driver, changed input bypass caps to Blackgate-N and coupling caps to 2x Mundorf Supreme and 2x Auricaps. Wil... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
I find the treble to be much on the smooth side on my system. In fact they sound significantly smoother than stuff like Spendor (already smooth) from what I hear in dealers showroom here. Could very well be the cheap samsung CDP (what to expect an... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Aggielaw,While I have not heard the new version of the slanted baffle Adagio, I do know that for the original version you probably need at least a good 9 feet for the MTM driver config to integrate properly. Perhaps this slanted baffle helps a lit... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
I just realised that the tweeter is really good. I was able to listen to some tracks on a famous speaker (which I shall not name) having a Scanspeak Revelator D2904/990000 tweeter. The amp and source are much more expensive than my stuff, but the ...

Hello David12.You may wish to toe them in quite a bit, do feel free to experiment. This is because I find the ribbon tweeters quite "directional", so actually they do benefit from toeing in greatly. For me I toe them in so that the tweeters just c...
