Upsizing Capacitors
You speak the truth! And thanks for that, great link - I'll have a read..

Upsizing capacitance doesn't always bring about improvements Very true..

New Technics is high(er) end, great amp, it’s beautiful - Grand Seiko of audio. I’d side with the no EQ camp, what is your source, Analog? If yes, try a better interconnect, silver via XLR. You really shouldn’t need an eq with a piece like that, e...

I find AliExpress ok, and find regardless what the cable says on it, you generally get what you pay for in China. More often than not the material they use is as advertised or stated. I have a few preferred vendors, AT Audio for instance, Xangsane...

Something like that may well have blown your comments out of the water! Man, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw it. Like double take, think, look again, then realize. It had to have been making contact, the leg was tightly up against the thr...

That is a great suggestion, thanks mate. I was looking at the photos more too, and wondering if I should look into replacing the power lead too - not sure of any audible impact though. Thanks for having a look!

I’ve had a few hours with it - occasionally I get a jazz track - what I listen to mostly - come on, and I experience an elevated level of clarity, bass and stage depth. And for those who experiment with cables might know what I am referring to by ...

Well gentlemen, job complete. What can I say, but wow. It sounds beautiful, it sounds like silver - and a good implementation of silver - crisp airy highs, spatial, separation, and a thick low frequency bass - just exactly the kind of accurate so...

Copper with a dielectric of whatever non-conductive material, don't care - PCB is not in scope, we can't make the board with Mundorf traces, at least not yet. You might want to try experimenting yourself, it's astounding what changes like this can...

Well, we are not talking binary function, a coat hanger might make it functional too, and I would never state I know more than an engineer, but I can say with a high degree of confidence a sterling conductor in the chain, no matter the variables c...

No, and I’d probably agree with them on that, I’ve used both their cable and others with no detectable change. In fact no power changes I’ve heard have made much impact on any of my equipment, at least not yet. It’s all about signal. Bryston used...

Well, delusional idiocy might be taking the description of an upgrade experiment a bit far, it can be delusional idiocy which finds new things, and most here I think enjoy this experimentation, I do - change the sound profile, experiment..   In ...

100%, I had a conversation with a chap who compared options with a parametric EQ, I could see his point.

Almost overwhelmed and very grateful for all of the lively and informative opinions here, and it’s much appreciated gentlemen, thank you. I referenced an old Bryston, mine is a 4B ST. I really appreciate the gents with experience with this partic...

How do we know ^those two things^ are true? 'We', not sure. I do from personal experience with interconnects and other Mundorf products. Their MCap Solder is divine :) My use case though would be from the board to the speaker binding posts, may...
