Acoustic Zen Crescendo speaker crossover capacitors ... who makes them?
Well my wife and I are now empty nesters and we wanted to move to warmer climate and an area vital musically and economically. We did a ton of research and Williamson Country (Franklin, TN) just south of Nashville seemed ideal. We visited a couple...

Yes indeed mapman. That is some read!

I will report back. Using the very good Jupiter flat stacked HT caps on the tweeter and midrange drivers. Using a mix of Duelund and Mills MRA resistors also. I will remove the crossover board behind the top woofer and do the best I can to fit the...

Great information and thank you very much. I always liked Mills MRA and just assumed the Duelund would be better. Great info.

I just went back to read your site information on the Teleportation tweak. Easily some of the best site prose I have ever read. I must remember to send my friends to your site. No, do not file for a patent as you will spill the beans on how you ac...

Has anyone here compared Duelund standard resistors to their CAST? I have a big project and can't afford CAST, but can consider thrilled standard. I think both are better than the Mills MRA which are good and affordable.

Plastic does impact tone in capacitors as we all know and not for the better  😊

Another reason is a patent makes your idea and process visible to all including competitors. Competitors make a couple of changes and they can in fact "copy"your "patent" in large measure. Sometimes it is better to just keep it hidden. I experienc...

Seems nobody knows? Well I have decided to go with Duelund CAST resistors and deciding between Jupiter HT flat stacked caps or perhaps Jupiter VT round caps.

In the spirit of innovation and "what can be" the fuse holder is important for several well understood reasons which include; Quote from DIY audio site that is remarkably forward thinking;"On other equipment, I went through the trouble of making a...

Wolf, that is exactly what I do with some parts. Vibration of parts is something smart designers try to solve for wether it be tube sockets, caps, fuse holders, or other sensitive areas.

Good points. More attention should be given to the fuse holder. This is an area for innovation for sure! 
Western Electric Cloth copper 3M 16GA Wire for IC's
We will see if the 20ga sounds better. Based on what I hear and read it seems it just sounds different, not neccessarily better in ICs. I like a little warmth and weight and it seems some of this is traded for air and resolution. We will see. Both...

Funny stuff LOL! To bad it is off point. Like reading the wit in your posts as well as others however.

Shadorne a fuse is an internal part along with caps, diodes, resistors, wire, trannys etc.... all these internal parts do impact the sound assuming the unit is designed properly as you say. A properly designed tube amp does benifit sonically when ...
