Talked to mouser few days ago only cap they have 6.8 which is for bass driver and mid driver in 2.5 crossover. Tweeter caps for me are 8.2 and 4.7 and 1.5 for rear firing tweeter. Maybe I'll replace 6.8 for the hell of it just to see only cost a f...

Breaking in a cap is not really on my fun list. I have alumen z/CMR in crossover, you prefer the cheap Wilma? Looked them up they are pretty cheap. How long was break in? Sometimes the new sonics can become wrong after newness wears off.  
Amplifier Hum - Only Amp Connected
Been through this one myself. I agree with cheater plug to start off or break ground pin off a cheap stock power cord. Have you swapped power tubes left to right since you said it's louder in one speaker, or maybe a rectifier tube. Electrolytic ca...

Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long
Schizophrenic is the only way I can describe the NCF. There is no immediate gratification with this purchase. It's really a long bad ride but once it's over it was well worth the aggravation. I almost pulled it out of the wall and stuck it in a dr... 
PrimaLuna Dialogue Preamp = emotionless?
I'll try to keep this short and hope this isnt offensive. I bought a little cheap Bruce Moore Preamp from a guy that had a Dialogue being shipped to him but it hadn't come in yet. He contacted me and regretted selling me the preamp and wanted it b... 
No binding post/ Amp hardwired to speaker wire. Anyone tried it
The amp has been modded by Audio Reference Mods 10 or so years ago. One of the Mods was to upgrade input and signal wire  to Audio Consulting silver in a cotton sleeve by the mod company. Millercarbon warranty is over and I do understand dangers o...

Rega can't adjust vtf some cartridges will hum, can sound cd like sometimes. Could look at VPI HW-19 or a Well Tempered Record Player or Classic models in the Rega price range.
