| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Air I agree you on the Solen inductors for bass, but the North Creek is in another league. Check them out on your next project! | |
| Upgrade-itus: Classé DR-9 vs. MF A3.2? The DR 9 is very old and will need servicing just to assure it is up to spec. I owned the amp and it is fine, but dark and not as good as other SS amps that are newer. CJ MF2300a is a better choice if you can find one. Electrocompaniet also makes ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I did not this time around as that would require more investment of money that I don't have right now. Just mounted the crossover on a board outside the speaker. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tom, I think your statement is spot on and what happened for me. DCR difference is something that must be dealt with in some instances. Wether it is audible or not, good or bad sound wise, or if a lower DCR necessitates the use of an additional re... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Salectric, thanks for the tip on the North Creek inductors. I have had them in the crossover for about 50 hours. They replaced the Solen stock inductors of a very thin gauge. The NC inductors I used were 10 guage and about 3-4 times the size.I was... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Every single mod I have done was only after living with the original for a long time. Not sure who your question was for John? As for me, I just completed another speaker mod that turned my good speaker Into something great for $700. Easily 40 % b... | |

I hate working on computers and I am forced to deal with one all week on my job. I MUCH p... | |

| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil We are also sharing a passion and love for building and learning. We want to tinker and play and get joy out of it. The destination is not the whole ball of wax as I enjoy the process as much or more. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil John K? What? I don't follow your post at all. We are talking about projects over time, not one static piece of gear. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Yes they are. Two in my preamp and 4 in my CD player. Waiting for the larger values for my crossover. I also placed 8 in some Thor amps. They are spectacular. Several of us replaced Duelund CAST in our preamps and love the improvement. The Duelund... | |

| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tom. How does one mechanically couple away vibrations on theses flat caps? With small brass points? How are the points attached to the bottom of the cap? Glue on the flat side of the cone? I am building an outboard crossover for my speakers as do ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Agreed. No bypass cap needed. Get Jupiter copper foil for FAR less money and they sound every bit as good....better to several good ears. No kidding. Your value will be out this or next week I am told. They are the SOTA in caps and sound quality b... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I like dealing with small, one man companies. Almost all of my gear comes from such a business. I find a big correlation between these types of creative and talented folks and great sound quality. I also learn a ton more about the piece as they mo... |
