Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
SIO = Mundorf Silver-in-oil, it is Erics recomended upgrade that you can purchase from him. You can buy parts and diy but for the price he offers the upgrade is nearly worth the parts alone. 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
I still very much like mine.Still want to play with the crossover too, but I'm a pretty big nerd when it comes to this stuff. I also put in a Duelund resistor, and cotton insulated wire. I'd really like to try Duelund caps, but I think they're too... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Genjamon, SSG is a Russian silver mica capacitor, I was running .1uf values which is a very large value silver mica. They're more detailed than any capacitor I've heard, and I have some really nice teflons. They ended up sounding compreshed and ha... 
Anyone ever compare Deluend to Russian KBG
Another league.... yes, no comparison. Also all the reviews of ampohm sounding like mundorf that I've read, not even close totaly different capacitors in my experience..So Duelund, hardly detectable, it seems to me I'm listening to the other compo... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Yes, I just pulled out the crossover with a bit of force, you shouldn't have to pull too hard.I've removed the ssg bypasses and I'm running just the kbg's right now, and it's better toned, coherant and dynamic, ie,; less detail but also less compr... 
Gold Lion PX300B vs Shuguang Treasure
yes, after much time tuning the amp in just right, and playing with the shuguang, I've put the px300b's back in and definatly a superior tube BUT!!! only in a superior amp. I've not only tuned to the shuguang for max performance but what was missi... 
yaqin mc100b tube rolling
Nice! I also have one of these amps and it started me into tube rolling, Your fav is probably very similar to what my favorites are as well... Let's compare.shuguang treasure kt88-z black bottle x 4VS.Shuguang Solid Smooth plate gekt88rca vt231 gr... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Just want to comment on the KBG crossovers with SSG's bypassing them...Oh wow there's resolution, and more natural sounding too, everything sounds more real, more organic. The bass is tighter and much more defined, I've never heard the zing of the... 
Burn in Capacitor phenomena
Just wanted to mention All my new caps are doing this, I have some Vcap cutf that do it, some solen tftf that are doing it, they all seem to be doing it. I can't wait until my Duelund cast arrive, they are supposed to be very limited in their reso... 
Anyone ever compare Deluend to Russian KBG
Anyway, The Duelund Cast are on there way, I have changed plans, I will be comparing them to Ampohm copper PIO, Mundorf SIO,and the KBG I'm so interested in (with and without SSG bypass). This will be in coupling duties, not in the crossover. For ... 
Anyone ever compare Deluend to Russian KBG
I read it either on audiogon (probably in the Mundorf SIO thread) or in Jimmy's comments section (where he was compareing Duelund). It was suggested that some people who aren't use to such a well damped or antiresonant cap might think these where ... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
I'm in the process of upgrading the crossovers, and need a little advice.I was curious about the zobel, the crossover I recieved from Eric has a zobel, but is 5.6uf and a 3ohm resistor. I believe the zobel you guys talked about is a 4uf and an 8oh... 
Anyone ever compare Deluend to Russian KBG
I've read someone say the Duelund Cast is dead sounding, and lacks dynamics...???I've read Teflon is better than duelund, tin or copper v-cap...???I've read KBG beats out teflon rel-cap (never heard how it compared to v-cap)Both Duelund and KBG ar... 
Gold Lion PX300B vs Shuguang Treasure
I've got some px-300b and some treasures on their way, I'll see if I can help with a small review soon. They'll be compared in the driver section of my JAS Audio Array 2.1. Initial thoughts when comparing the GL px300b to a Shuguang 300bc is that ...
