Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
Salelectric, others,As is turns out, the elements in parallel are more than Zobel networks in some cases they are a filter, so the XO is 1st order up to a point and a 3rd other after a certain frequency. So probably worth upgrading all caps and in...

Seletric, Thanks for your response. In this specific case, they are 1st order crossovers. I understand the parallel components are mostly to improve the impedance of the drivers as seen by the remainder of the circuit. Do you think that also in th...

Hello,I am still tweakin the Duelund cast external crossovers for my Dunlavy SC-VI, with the help of Eddie (also engineer, DIY). Resistors: All resistors are now Duelund Cast. Big improvement in detailCapacitors in the main signal path: Duelund Ca...

The phase 1 (of 5) of my duelund external crossovers is ready and working. This time only changing all resistors to duelund cast, keeping all solen caps and inductors. I conditioned the duelund caps and inductors (for later phases), but forgot to ...

It seems that Krell Service is now using for their full-recap service work for FPB series the Nichicon PS(M) capacitors. Has anyone compared these with Nichicon gold line? FG, KZ, FW, KW? http://www.nichicon-us.com/english/products/alm_mini/pict_...

I exchanged emails with Anthony Lucas, Eminence tech support, back in 5/2006. I need to take out one of the 15" woofers and send him the part number, which I still haven't done, but plan do do soon.

Hi Tom,The 220uF cap is not in the circuit of the 8" woofers. The crossover circuit for the 8" woofers is composed of a 2.56mH inductor in series with a 10R0 resistor (3x 30R0 resistors in parallell), and in parallel with the 8" woofers are a 3.3u...

Question for those with experience in biamping: I bought a second pair or Krell fbp 750mcx, a Pass XVR-1 and interconnects/cables to biamp the Dunlavy SC-VI. I will use the extra set of Krell exclusively for the 4 x 15” woofers. The passive crosso...

For those who have experience burning Duelund CAST capacitors with the cable cooker. a) I first put the 7.5uF in series with 2.4uF to burn with the cable cooker. How many days do you suggest? b) Then I will put the huge 56uF. How many days? Thanks

It should take until the end of September for my DIY colleague to build the 1st phase of the external crossovers (changing resistors first). As the phases get done I will be posting the results. Cheers.

I put in a photo of the Duelund caps, inductors and resitors in my Virtual System page, under "Duelund CAST external crossover".

I just received my Duelunds: three pairs of CAST-cu capacitors, three pairs of CAST-cu inductors, lots of CAST resistors. Total weight: 25Kg. Very nice looking and huge. 
Esotar T-330D Tweeter
Hwo about the Esotar E110 "auto" tweeters? Can they be used in home speakers? 
Monitors that use the Dynaudio Esotar Tweeter
What about using the new "auto" Dynaudio E110 in a speaker? 
DUNLAVY SC-VI
AlissaTweaks, How did you end up with your room? Can you send a picture? I also own a pair of Dunlavy SC-VI. Room dimensions and positioning are super important, as already discussed. Thanks.
