Kimber vs Jensen coupling caps in Cary amps No kidding! As far as I remember, there was a thread in Audio Asylum/Tweaks/DIY that Kimbers are very detailed, etc. Also, I substituted the stock Audio 1 caps in my other amp (Cary SLI-80) for Jensens and I thought they were bright. I hope a subs... | |
No bias in Cary-SLI-80 It was the fuse. It appeared that I did not notice the broken element inside the glass!I contacted Cary and they suggested that I take the readings of the fuse if it looks good, which I did. Now everything is OK. | |

Snell E/III vs. Snell Type D loudspeakers I really appeciate your comment!Actually, I own the E/III for 12 years. Several times I tried to replace them for new speakers, taking home various speakers from a hi-end dealer, but after a month's euphoria I came back to Snells. I decided to kee... | |

Neotek KHS-188 interconnect cable Thanks!Indeed, what it lacks is timing, though it does sound good in my vacuum tube system.Best regards,Alexander |
