| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Undertow I can understand your non belief in the importance of a crossover cap as I admit ONE poly cap in the crossover and all is lost! I do not know why. (I can guess)I would not say a "one time" base of less echo. The Duelund do much more than ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Well Undertow you could be right and I think you are as that is why I backed away from buying Duelund CAST inductors. Yes even Chris at partsconnextion thinks the tweeter cap being the most important. (and hardest to get right)The Klipsch of cours... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Undertow we for sure do not feel the same of importantance of the the crossover caps. Limited freq response? I am am confused the mids and highs are run by the mid and tweeter cap. Other than the inductor for the woofer all freq are covered by cro... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil UndertowI hope and pray you are wrong. (no offense) I hope the CAST is better than the VSF in the crossover. I am only going on the hunch that the CAST is the same but has better damping properties. (what they have been saying) I have talked to Du... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Another eval of "A Day in the Life" Beatles. I use that because I am sure many people have there music to compare. The song on vintage tube all Mundorf. (one Supreme one SIO tweeter cap)Aggressive soundingThe song with Duelund/vintage is about Rin... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Great work Mike.I guess the Clarity Cap is very, very good. How does there price compare to Mundorf range? One thing I do find strange is Tony's assesment of Mundorf range and Tempo's? Tempo likes that Supreme better than SIO and Tony places each ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I put back in the Mundorf caps in the midrange. What is noticable is the less noise. I remember reading McIntosh quoting higher signal to noise ratio out of there amps using poly caps. This is easy to understand the only thing that would concern m... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Undertow I did see that price after putting in the post. Not cheap but I do keep hearing how there speakers are better than most for the $. Yes I have heard of the capacitors. I only tried Duelund as they seem to be higher rated than Audio Note. I... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Anyone heard the buzz about Audio Note speakers? I had never heard of them. (30 years with one speaker will do that)I keep hearing how they sound better than B&W etc for the $. I did check out what they are made of and it is interesting to see... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Hmmm that's interesting. Face I am not surprised that the Clarity is better than the Sonicaps. Dynamics on the Sonicaps is very weak. Face any other caps to compare too? Would be interesting compared to Mundorf? As I understand they are much more ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I am looking at that very idea of speaker cable. I am using 12 guage Linn speaker wire. 25 ft x 2. (which I need nowhere near as much) I am curious as to how much difference plastic free speaker wire will make? Easier to replace worn out caps than... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The CAST caps are not here yet but will be interesting.JohnK had done extensive work on vintage Klipsch speakers. He had tried working on the cabinets to dampen them down. I feel the resonance is caused by the foil cap and maybe not the cabinet. A... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Did some more testing and I do not mean to upset anyone here who owns either Bennic, Sonicap, or Mundorf but all plastic caps I have heard degrade the sound in a big way and it is NOT hard to tell. In the horns you hear everything. (good or bad) I... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Thanks DaveWhat is the voltage of the PIO? Can they be used in electronics to replace vintage caps? You are right on the Teflons being not that good right out of the box. I have heard some crazy hours like 400 for Teflons? That is almost a month a... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I have become intrigued with the Russian PIO. I took back out the Teflon just leaving in the Russian PIO.I need to put some hours on these but first impression is good. They reduce the nasty plastic sound of the Mundorf Supreme. For the first time... |
