Its all to put into your audio file cabinet of experience and knowledge..If you ever saw the 3ft long crossover of a Thiel CS5 speaker with maybe 75 components on its board and the many poor quality resistors it would make you say to yourself WHAT...

Yea Yea. They need lotsa breakin they will sound good then worse then good and one day they will suddenly sound great..Tom

Remember it ain't just the price it is the material makeup. Material makeup and manufacturer make the difference in caps as well..Same with wire. Oh, and all, can hear a difference in a 3 hundred dollar speaker, have replaced many in this price of...

I am not a material engineer. I am a good listener. I am opened minded..I will take chances. I have rebuilt many a speaker..Some of these speakers cost 10k a pair..The single biggest improvement were the replacement of the resistors...Most of thes...

So why, if you already new the answer, that was in your brain..Why did you bother asking?..What constitutes an "Audiophile" resistor, the price, the chemical makeup, the sound in comparison to other devices in the same circuit? Tom

Spend 4 American dollars and take a listen to the North Creek's..Tom 
"Non Inductive" resistors.
North Creek Music makes non-inductive wire wound resistors that sound superb..The material that these great resistors are made of is their secret to their sound. Only thing I have heard that sound better are resistor bridges made from Vishay metal... 
Greatness: Recognition at last
The Caravelle's with the dedicated stands will be 5k. Tom 
Outstanding Speakers, Outstanding
Tom, I am happy to have been able to enjoy all the bits and pieces,points and platforms and racks and amps and now the speakers from this most innovative company..I have been along on the ride since 1992 as a customer and in the last year as a dea... 
KRELL SACD or TEAC Esoteric DV-50
Grant remember I am a dealer for a few items..The power cord is the Sonoran Plateau. This is a very linear, wide bandwidth cable, dynamically balanced..Tom 
KRELL SACD or TEAC Esoteric DV-50
Sm I agree! Like I said many moons ago the stock cd quality is incredible almost in the league of SACD..A great power cord can make a world of difference on this player..And with such a cord I preferred the Krell over the MF TriVista SACD player..Tom 
Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR?
Is all of the above the result of Qualudes and Grain Alcohol? Tom
