| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Thanks Undertow for your response. You, like me seem to make all the values plus or minus 1%. Do you believe that manufacturers go to the exacting component value matching that most contributors to this thread subject their own components to? I be... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil UndertowThank you for your efforts of observation and Clarity..pun intended. What ratio works for you with the combo of MR's and S/O's. Example please. Thanks Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil DaveAre you saying to measure the value of the main cap. A cap that is is supposed to be 10uf and measures 9.5uf then you would add the same brand and type of cap in this case .5uf. This is exactly what I did some years ago with a set of Dunlavy's... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Undertow,Certainly appreciate your thoughtful input on these very difficult and time consuming evaluations. In my own experience I have found that the addition of bypass caps in speakers results in a loss of precise focus and change in the harmoni... | |
| Just a stinkin fuse... So Chuck lets buy a new mold..We both know how these speakers work and can work and the resulting playback is in 3D.. Tom | |
| Mapleshade bedrock stands for large monitors Peter Snell's patent from the mid 70's had a rendition that predicted the floor speaker inneraction and the geometry to overcome this problem. Mr Snell's patent is a thing of beauty and describes in detail a speaker and many of its boundary reacti... | |
| The CD player is dead....... Going to take a couple Zanies and smoke the peace pipe with my neighbors daughter and explain how resonance control is beneficial within the hemisphere and makes for better coupling. Probably be playing a cd in the round. Tom | |
| The CD player is dead....... If you can touch it you can feel it. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil As a former commissioned salesman I request a % of that increase on every Duelund component sold hereafter. Thank you for your keen observation and your gratuitous response. I will forward you my direct deposit information. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Years ago I had built up ladder type resistor bridges made from the then state of the art Vishay resistors to replace the cheap low quality sand cast resistors in my SC4's. When I told John Dunlavy of what I was about to do he said it would make n... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The Z's I used to replace a few of the Dales's in the Wyred4 Sound preamp volume control.. select values that are in my normal listening range made for a vey nice improvement in noise floor and transparency. Plus there are ones that are always eng... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ait I wondered who would post first about this catch point. I agree... this was an experiment based on effects of damping and their side effects. All of this was done 8 or so years ago. Since then we use brass shot as the fill material around the ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sherod the wire I used in the cabinet and everywhere else has a small insulated cavity around the conductor that was filled with the same steel bearing I experimented with inside the crossover. The wire could be overfilled to the point where it to... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil You want to minimize the storage time by tensioning the components of the crossover to a mother board such as Ironwood or brass terminated to ground...the floor with single piece footers, preference of brass or bronze. I have added bags of steel s... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil You will want to tension and mechanically hard mount the external crossover components but not damp them with some type of soft pour material or silicon. The whole assembly then needs to be coupled to good old Mother Earth for resonance to pass th... |
