| Sheffield/XLO Test & Burn-in CD. Directions? Hello, it's not really too complicated. I've had the XLO Test CD for 15 years. Let the demag tracks play through once each at average volume. Set track 9, the break-in track, on REPEAT and play *continuously* at average volume for at least three d... | |

| WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips So, here's a question in case someone has figured this out already. Actually, a two-part question. For a bank of small capacitors - I have a bank of six small capacitors in my Oppo and a bank of eight small caps in my headphone amp - should a WA C... | |
