| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Undertow I will let you try that one and report back.I have been burned enough. Even though the Duelund was very expensive it was at least better. So no regrets! Spending $120 on caps for one speaker midrange is not a big deal but when it is not a... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The hours in this breakin are NOT going to be as fun as with the Duelund in the tweeters. That was very quickly a revalation and that provided huge enjoyment. This is like driving into the ditch and hoping you come out! (breakin)It has cost me mon... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sound is slower for sure and no even close to as "life" like. Funny that the tweeters have gotten rougher sounding? The super naturalness of the speakers is gone! Right now I am very disapointed. I hope they break in better than they sound now. So... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil This is first few moments of impression of Mundorf Supreme in midrange (still Duelund in tweeters)A little rougher in the midrange then the vintage caps. Dynamics are very close not like the change to Sonicaps. (which were MUCH less) The mid range... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Mundorf Supreme caps are in.I will be installing tonight. Dynamics you can tell right away but it will take time to of course fully break in.I want to get acquainted with them before Duelund's come in to understand the difference. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil UndertowYou could be right as Bryston was another horrible match to Klipsch as well. I have had Linn's lower line of amps and they were softer. I am still in shock with the vintage tube. I put it back in this weekend. The caps will be here today o... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Mundorf Supreme's are being ordered for testing and one of the guys from the site is going to send some Russian Teflon's. We are going to see if a stable good cap like a Mundorf Supreme what the effect is when bypassed with Teflon. I am going to p... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil DgarretsonCould it be those hand made (wad of gum) capacitors? Clearly someone wound them up by hand! I did notice that everything (on caps) was +-10% which is sloppy by todays standards. If it was the output transformers over decades why then do ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The capacitor that has been replaced runs from the output tubes. So I assume (no doubt) this is one that makes a great deal of difference to sound?Another question have wondered. Some guys say tubes sound slow and lack bass defintiton. The SS gear... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Need Help Please tube guys.I installed the Linn SS amps back in. The vintagee amp clobbers the SS stuff. SS sounds mechanical! I am new to this tube gear and have heard modern tube gear and was not all that impressed. The vintage one blows me away... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Vintage caps and SS on the one speaker is the thing of nightmares!Even the other speaker with the Duelund tweeter caps is not as good as with the tube but unsure if it is caused by SS or bad midrange cap?The difference is even more distinct than w... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Put SS back on to eval with it as well. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil My feeling exactly on the crossover parts. (fewer the better) I am not taking on the Linn speakers. What is worse is they have a shelf life then. You either buy there crossover circuit board staying at spec or they are most like obsolete. (if they... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Realistic priced for the Khorns? Dirt cheap might be another word. For sure for the vintage ones. I think B&W's top speaker is 70k. I think Linn's is around 50k but that comes with amplification built in and no crossovers. The reason I was tol... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Klipsch used to be a high end company though Undertow. 30 years ago a set of Khorns was almost 4k. Klipch went down market since then. Which is another question I have can a corporation advance audio? It seems like to me whenever a corporation tak... |
