| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tas, I looked at your diagram and the smaller 2.7 and 2.2uf caps are not bypass caps, but part of the resistor/capacitor Zobel networks on your tweeter and midrange drivers.In these RC or Zobel networks a resistor and capacitor are linked in serie... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ok here is an update on the cap and resistor upgrade I did on my speakers. First I want to say to those who feel caps and resistors don't need to burn in and that any changes we hear are our ears getting used to the different sound. Your wrong! Ha... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Charles, are you absolutely sure your speakers don't have Zobel network parts....Have you looked all around? They may indeed....? | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil In addition bypass caps are usually a much smaller value such as .01 - .68 uf values.....the 5uf or so tweeter cap would not be bypassed with 2 or 2.2uf value! | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tas, not sure what you mean about posting it on your Agon page. You don't have such a page and would need a virtual system set up.....I think I have this right?You can contact me through the Agon system and we can share ideas and progress. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Thanks Steve. I am getting close to wanting to try your Offramp power supply! | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I also suggest solid core copper wire from Neotech. They make Teflon coated 6/9's pure copper that is very good and affordable. Use 20 gauge on the tweeter and 14 gauge on the bass drivers. The mids can use 16-18 gauge. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tas, thanks for the update. Ya, getting better wire will also help. The Duelund silver would be awesome! Yes it is pricy, but very good indeed. I want to see the diagram for your speaker. I do not think those smaller caps are bypass caps, I think ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I see you did not talk to Duelund. I would not bypass a Duelund cap and simply go with the one cap. Bypassing can introduce issues and why take the risk with such a great sounding cap?I assume you are using Duelund on the midrange drivers also? | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring is a cyclist term. It is the third smaller ring on the front crank shaft used to help during steep climbs. Most riders don't use them and hammer it out with just the second smaller ring. I like to spin up a mountain and keep my knees he... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tasoili, I would love to email with you on this. My speaker seems to be just like yours. Why do you need internal wire? Just use what is in there? The crossover parts should be part to part wired with no additional wire needed...right?Behind my tw... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Agear, not sure I can do this with Offramp....it does not have a wireless option? Perhaps his reclocker unit does? | |
| Has anybody tried using single solid core cables? Yes, I now use solid core silver cables all around and my experience mirrors what Charles just said. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Agreed Charles. Just send me your amps and I will tell you what I think in a few months :-) | |
| Has anybody tried using single solid core cables? I have found solid core copper sounds better than stranded based on my experiments both as speaker cable and hook up wire inside tube amps. Stranded is softer with less focus and reduced dynamics. This is something I have heard in my DIY cables an... |
