| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Parts came in today.I am testing sound wise the more broke in Ampohm. I will test exactly when the silver wire is installed in second speaker. Listening to Tchaikovsky just a huge difference. On Jimmy's website there is a comment from a new CAST o... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Still waiting??? Parts just not here yet. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil SherodThat' good on the wire.More listening tests on the Ampohm vs. Duelund. (still waiting for more Silver wire) I just installed a fresh set of (output) tubes for the coming final tests. It is unbelievable the difference in one cap in the amp. T... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil SherodIt is interesting this top end airiness. I have given this much thought. I agree with Steen this is added by the capacitor. The VSF even does it, at least compared to the CAST. Part of this resonance we are used too though, so it seems norma... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Irish65I will give it a try. You could be right as the (flat) Silver wire was much better in the mid's and highs so why not the woofer?Have you sold your Duelund parts yet? (the ones you were not using)Can you fill me in on the difference in the S... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sorry should saySo far not even close to the bottom end even of the Jensen Copper Paper Tube type. I do like these caps (nice mid range) and are good for the $$$ but Jensen Copper Paper Tube competition or Duelund VSF??? I can't see it. I am actua... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil So far in just a few hours the Ampohm sounds remarkably similiar to the vintage Vishay caps. Smooth mid range. I will be ordering the rest of the Silver wire to compare on an exact basis Ampohm vs. Duelund VSF cap. So far not | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I have an Ampohm Copper installed and is in direct competition with a Duelund VSF. The rest of the caps on both sides are Jensen Copper Paper Tube.The Ampohm's are smaller than the Jensen's by a fair bit but twice as long as the 630 volt vintage a... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil My choice of amps right now are a completely vintage EL84 or one channel in a vintage amp (7591) all Jensen Copper Paper Tube and one Duelund VSF. The other channel all Jensen and one vintage cap with one speaker still wired non Duelund.I can list... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Just ordered the Ampohm Paper in Oil Copper type.I tried to get the Mylar but not available in my size. Tony Gee gave the Aluminum a 12- so one can assume the Copper is above that.Should be in tomorrow or next day. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Thanks SherodThe tube store is only one hour from where I live. I was on looking since my post. I will put in an order for some in the morning.The only thing is I do not see below .1uf? in that style. I have always wondered what a new Mylar would ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil SherodWhere did you buy them from? I might have to try a pair?I only have the vintage foil in mylar and they have that "see through" sound so know what you are talking about.Could you give a real close listen to see if there is a tilt. The vintage... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil With the Lp's I traded in part of my credit bought the Beatles Box set in Mono.The set sounded awful at first. So I switched to the EL84 knowing that is what they recorded on. My opinion is the tapes are getting old. I do not hear any compression ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I am testing the Silver wired speaker vs. the vintage wired.I have switched amps to use an all vintage EL84 no cap changes nothing. Just to make sure on the wiring. | |
