| Anyone Know Where To Get The 4 Big Can Caps? Parts Connexion in Canada Mouser Michael Percy Audio Sonic Craft ??? | |
| McCormack DNA 125 @nymarty - Very familiar with. Swap out power supply capacitors, upgrade resistors to higher values is also a good idea. You can also try V-Caps and I can let you hear amps that have them. | |
| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) The best SS phono I ever heard and would buy is the Tom Evans. Excellent sounding. The Tron also makes a good phono but it is a little soft sounding but very musical. Happy Listening. | |
| McCormack DNA 125 I in New Jersey if you want to upgrade the amp or discuss. | |
| Softest, smoothest sounding capacitors you've tried? @terry9 oimp are oil impregnated polypropylene. Clarity also has a sound | |
| Softest, smoothest sounding capacitors you've tried? Agree with Rodman99999 - you can try Takman carbon resistors. Don't agree 100% with Eric and petg60. All caps have coloration (every single one does) as opposed to using chokes instead of capacitors. Agree with mickeyb - V-Cap oil caps are smoo... | |
| Jupiter vs. Vcap Odam? We have compared V-Cap Oil to the Jupiter Copper in many components. We preferred the V-Caps to the coppers. We now are using the ODAM as we feel they improve upon the sound of the V-Cap oil caps. Plus they are smaller in size so we can perform ... | |
| Looking for Wadia 16 parts; specifically “Servo” board” I can take a look at it and possibly fix the board if you want to send it to me Northern New Jersey | |
| Leben CS 600 pre-amp tubes I can do the tube change over if you want to go that way. | |
| ODAM capacitors. Since we have been repairing and upgrading components for many years, over 20 plus, we recently installed a pair in Counterpoint SA-3000 and SA-220. I can say that the ODAMs were a very nice improvement. Happy Listening. | |
| Mirage M1 Speakers. @pdspecl - We just repaired and upgraded an old Counterpoint SA-220 with some better capacitors, resistors and V-Cap ODAMs. We were laughing at how good it now sounds. We have rebuild so many components but when you upgrade a Counterpoint compon... | |
| Manley Stingray Users I'm in New Jersey if you need to send the unit for re-cap and upgrades. | |
| Does remote control degrade the sound of tube preamps? As a manufacturer we tried so many controls and recently replaced a very high priced control $400 that we added Audio Note resistors to with a basic ALPS, darn if we could really hear the difference. BUT I an sure there are difference depending o... | |
| Speakers known for great midrange. Best mid-range I ever heard was the old model Alon Phalanx The Alón Phalanx/Poseidon Loudspeaker System is to this day the best mid-range sound I ever heard. I also jut heard them recently, why I didn't buy them I don't know. Happy Listen... |
