I have tried the Clarity MR by the way... So I did report back a few posts back.

Volleyguy I would almost give you my own personal money back guarantee on this one.. However I have not heard the MR in every application, but from what I can tell with educated guess, and ears on how most of these caps react, the MR is indeed a v... 
Klipsch Palladium P-39F?
The palladium is most definitely now a product designed simply to see how far they can push the hifi money spenders with their brand, its not a ground breaking speaker or design, as a matter of fact the only real advancment for klipsch personally(...

Or buy the clarity cap MR's... They beat them all from what I have heard, they are poly 
fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones
Call me a fool… Yeah first off I would change tubes, cables etc.. and believe in the results before Fuses.. However, I am one of the few within the last few months to say "Okay its cheap enough why not?"First I used an ISOCLEAN which has gone up a...

It would seem that the Duelund would have more effect with solid state since it breaks up the harder edged sound.. So my guess is simply you have a bad match of a SS amp for Klipsch, which is very easy to do… Use a Mcintosh or Monarchy audio SS Cl...

I agree the less passive components the better, and also the less parts, the more expensive ones can take over the spot and have better effect. Your linns have some very large values, and too many components for sure, especially in 3 way speakers ...

I believe the guy you speak of is on this site, and on another thread saw the new pricing of 20 k vs. 15 k originally projected for the palladiums and said thats way to much now and I assume maybe went back to the more realistic priced speaker.. I...

Yes the crossover is excessively weak for a 20 k speaker was my point... Klipsch making anything in that range might be way out of their element in my opinion :-)

I don't know about Linn speakers.. I honestly just put forward an example of a 1 k pair… Yeah sure I could see the linns if they are that good with better parts being on par with something in the 10 k range, why not? That’s all it takes, I mean sp...

VolleyguyYep.. A full on no holds barred crossover will cost more than the raw price of some speakers.. But everytime I have done it, was worth more than speakers costing 3 times more, just do the crossover and your 1000 dollar pair will be easily...

Oh forgot to mention the Jensen Oil Copper caps.. Reason is they are not worth mentioning... That should tell you enough, very fuzzy, very boring. I know they make the dulunds, but obviously a totally different design.

Clarity cap MR… Well it’s the best cap made period, for the price none will come close.. A Vcap with 400 hours on it will probably sound 95% similar.. out of the box these bad boys are all there! Unreal soundstage, earth cracking huge, vast, tight...

Even in 1980 they were realizing possibly the biggest advancement in upgrades of this audio technology was not the exact topologies but the capacitors it seems.. I have heard myself bigger sound differences using the same component with different ...
