| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The internal structure is most likely Mylar and certainly not organic as an FYI. | |
| Speaker hum problem - need help Bad or going bad power supply cap? Would it not do exactly what we hear here...... | |
| what amp under a grand? No history with that. Sorry | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil A quick search shows that most, including Parts Connextion, lists them as PIO caps. However, Jimmy's Junkyard capacitor thread lists them as Mylar. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I am not sure Duelund claims or ever claimed paper and no plastic, but many of us assumed that as did reviewers. They may have some oil, but certainly not impregnated in the plastic stuff.None of this takes away from the sound, but I do find it in... | |
| what amp under a grand? Not tubes for your speaker. Ghent is affordable and the trial period makes it risk free and fun.The others may be out of your budget. Keep an eye out for used ones. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Correction " the little oil that MAY be there". Looks to be none. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The Duelund CAST may contain some oil but it would not impregnate the Mylar type substance inside the cap. Some suggest the little that is there may be to preserve the copper? | |

| what amp under a grand? Your speaker is very musical and could certainly be described as a tad dark sounding. A higher power class D amp would be the best choice. It will balance out the speaker perfectly and for little money. You can buy brand new monos from Ghent Audio... | |

It is really quite startling how many show up for sale based on how many have been sold here in the states.Great unit for sure and perhaps most are looking to... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Some interesting information is coming out on the very good Duelund CAST caps. I have seen pictures of one cut in half and it is pretty interesting what is inside. They contain lots of a plastic type substance and no paper or oil. Ya, you are read... | |
| what amp under a grand? Bel Canto 300m. Great combo! | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil One other thing to consider. Replacing caps on a circuit board is more work. It can be a lot more work if space is tight, the board is cheap, the board has to be removed, there are small resistors in close proximity.........It can be tricky and as... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Salectric is right. If you are certain you have the right position and they are not power supply caps, then replace them. If they are output caps, then no need for that value and a 1 uf will be fine. I replaced the 100uf output caps in my Sony NS ... |
