Thanks very much Kirkus! Kind of what I thought. I have wondered that with my 500c a tiny crack in the solder I expect. Just a slight noise above the noise floor. I can understand the turning of the noses. Of the 5 Fishers I have all sound differe...

We need some guys who have tried plastic free. Dgarretson can you come in comment?If you believe the Duelund story it is the oil impregnated cotton wrapped wire one wants. I have said it before (and taken a ribbing) I think getting the plastic out...

Thanks David will do.

Also I have a in series inductor of .245mh in the tweeter circuit.I know I hear you guys talk about Duelund resistors being a big bang for the buck improvement.What about a in series inductor? Why would Klipsch use an inductor for the tweeter? Any...

My Klipsch have the normal lamp cord gauge what guage is that? 16 or 18awg?Do not want to go smaller.

Hmmm I am going to have to try some of that Duelund hook up wire. I know I am going to one day replace my Linn speaker wire. I still having trouble with this silver thing? Not sure why a few feet of silver hook up wire running though my copper cap...

Stonedeaf I am having my tech guy check them out and told to replace anything that they need. Nothing to exciting though I just said go to Tempo Electric's site and use the top level parts available. Thanks David I am looking into the SET route as...

Thanks GuysDavid $800 hook up wire! To me confusing I did not expect the improvement I got from Duelund caps but $800 wire I guess I can not wrap my head around that giving me bang for the buck? I will not spend anything like that on wire as I (th...

I am going to finish off the crossover build permanent.Any recomendations on what to mount parts? And hook up wire? Nothing crazy as I am going to spend a bit getting a pre-amp and amp and upgrading it. Thanks

Another question my tech guy said that in the past the transformers could look different but in fact be the same inside?Is that right?

Getting the x202 (Old Fisher) rebuilt and it needs a new filter electolytic capacitor.I wanted my Tech guy to use ASC recommended by Tempo Electric as the best caps for that purpose anyone ever use them?He was ordering Cornell and I never even hea...

Parts come in and they are not the right parts. Different output transformers. x101c and x101d are not the same I can see why one would get annoyed with this!!!! Both 7591 tubes but not the same transformers. x101d's are much larger!

Fiddler yes excuse me of course you are right on Teflon. I do hope the V Caps sound great as I will be buying them shortly and I would be thrilled if they do. The V Caps certainly have a good reputation from all corners. Maybe I should rephrase th...

Mike I would really like to know do you run the signal through the Clarity and then to the Duelund? If so I can understand you saying not that much better. I thought Duelund to not be worth the $ until run through a foil and then to the (of course...

UndertowYes this thread may be "WAY DEAD" but the quote saying not using resistors and inductors of 1979 quality. You say that as if 1979 quality was for sure a bad thing? Frederik even admitted that Steen until he came out with his own caps used ...
