| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp I don’t see the need to excuse rude and obnoxious behavior. I was just joking around a bit to ease the tension. But to be honest I do not take any comments personally. Unfortunately there is always some character lurking around a forum who is ... | |
| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp whatever you do….run new parts in before passing judgement…. This is a very good point. I have been running the Kt-150 based Muzishare X10 for a few days now. Maybe still only 20-30 hours on it since delivery. But the soundstage is really openi... | |
| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp @charles1dad I am glad that you see his point. I do not. He makes smug and arrogant assumptions about people he doesn’t even know. They are just words on a computer screen. Don't get mad at some LCD pixels. Unless you are on Twitter and some... | |
| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp I don't have any real experience modifying hifi gear so this will be my first attempt.

| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp Thanks! I will take a look. I have watched a few of his other videos before. Seems like a nice guy in addition to all his knowledge. | |
| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp From my understanding the existing non-polarized caps are silver film. I do not think they are junk but for a reasonable cost certainly am willing to upgrade them. So no love for the Mundorf Supreme SGO 1000VDC caps here? I had originally been th... | |
| Question About Capacitor Upgrade in Tube Amp Thanks for the replies so far. Did anyone know if the .33uF on the B+ filter cap is just for noise filtering on the power supply or does it have any effect on the amp sound? I probably will just leave that one alone unless someone one here has so... | |
| what kind of power conditioner for front end? I use a Furman Elite 15 DM I. I feel it offers sufficient surge protection. It has 3 banks of outlets with separate filtering for each type. And it has displays to show voltage and current output. For around $400 on sale it is all I think I n... | |
