| Why have capacitors improved so much over the years? It’s market driven. Who cared about capacitors 20 or 30 years ago. People like us who tweek and upgrade electronics have found that capacitors make a difference in sound quality. Like changing tubes and interconnects. | |
| The best tube poweramp. . What do you think about ? McIntosh! | |
| Why does a dent to a tweeter not affect sound quality? You can easily have a tweeter dust cap or “nipple” replaced, for aesthetic reasons. The Speaker Exchange in Tampa Fl does excellent work and this type of repair isn’t expensive. | |

| Single vs. Dual Subs I’m not a real sub person for stereo, only for my AV system, which I have two. I started with one and noticed a vast improvement with two in terms of balance. | |
| Old Amps that can still Kick Butt My restored McIntosh MC30’s (especially), and even my rusty old mc240 find. Absolute sonic bliss | |
