LOUSY SOUND AT LIVE CONCERTS
The venue and genre of music are significant factors. Fans of hip hop, rap,pop and rock music for example find themselves in venues where sound quality isn't the priority but rather how loud. Amplified sound via PA systems usually sounds pretty ba... 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
If Jupiter can develop a foil capacitor that sounds better than the Duelund CAST for less money that'd be quite an accomplishment. Hype and hope is one thing, actually achieving this is another. Once these capacitors are available time will tell. ...
