Best Amp for $300 to Power Paradigm Monitor 9s
CzariveyYou are right. Just disconnect the silly thing. The amp is not in a cab or rack and will breath just fine.That Muse is a fine alternative for sure. 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Ha! Love your comments George. As you know I have tried your passive three times, but just prefer my tube active. But, I do like the way your passive sounds and it is a killer value. Just not as real sounding as my active.I soooo wanted to like yo...

Look out Charles as you must now look at the all important resistors in key positions. Oh ya, they matter. Some nice Vishay TX 2575 Z Foils! Also the very musical Shinkoh. Super Franks!

TasouliTake a look at my system page....many changes. My new speaker is Lahave and I upgraded the crossover and placed it externally.I purchased them from Chris at Jupiter directly. He has a few now, but not enough to add them to his website just ...

Well hi Bob. I never owned Dale's speakers, but have heard that model on several occasions and for extended periods of time. One time with Dale's uber expensive SS monoblock amps. They are both cut from the same sonic cloth in many ways. Fast, res...

Ha, no, no Charles. I said I am one million percent sure he will like the whatever percentage improvement! Ya, Jupiter should hire me to sell their line and be comfortable that I will never over promise and under deliver :)

MarqmikeI am 1,000,000 percent sure the Jupiter caps will make you smile big! A no brainer. Just replace the same value caps. You need to first know what is inside and how they are mounted.. No downsides and only big smile improvements.Glad to hel...

Charles the caps are marked with a line on one side of the label. This is the outer foil side. Just be sure and tell your tech guy.

Forgot to mention the burn in process on the new Jupiter copper foil crossover caps. My observations were based on about 6-7 hours of burn in. Yes, only 7 hours for this reaction and I expect further refinement over the next 100-200 hours. The fir...

Charles you made the right choice. However much sonic improvement can be squeezed from that part position in your circuit will indeed be realized.

I have to report on the new Jupiter copper foil caps for speaker crossovers. These are the 100v larger value caps. I purchased two 3.3uf and two 1 uf caps to parallel on my Raal tweeters. They cost me some $594 for all of them. Not cheap, but wait...
