Undertow a little confused?The new Klipsch Palladium series if the crossover is so weak what about the rest of the components? What exactly do you mean WAY out of there element?

Thanks UndertowYou are right and I am not that hard core. Linn also does Aktiv and used Aktiv is likely cheaper and for sure more resaleable.I have moved the CD player back in to the Linn system and can now understand why some were so excited abou...

I took the Linn speakers apart and it is a crazy idea as the speakers crossovers are a circuit board. There is a 8uf Bennic and at least two other bigger caps 50mfd's and one unmarked cap. There is three inductors plus other parts I do not even kn...

I have asked on the Linn thread about capacitors replacement. No response. Almost if it was a crazy idea. In Linn world Aktiv is taken as a given. I know it works well but what about just staying passive in the case of just being better without th...

Tearing apart the Linn speakers tomorrow. Looking at a less expensive redo there as well.I have this theory that maybe a cheap Linn all in one player may sound better than much more expensive source and pre and amp with better crossover parts. Thi...

I have been looking into doing the caps in the Linn speakers as well. Not sure I want to spend Duelund money again so soon but maybe Duelund Aluminum VSF for tweeter. I took the base off the Linn speaker on Saturday and they kind of seal the botto...

Been gone of couple of days.Dgarretson I may take you up on this. I could order a Mundorf Supreme 10uf for the midrange, to go with the 2.2 I have. I need to total 13uf (or close) I am waiting on Duelund. The Russian Teflon is interesting. Did you...

Thanks UndertowI wish Tempo eval'ed Clarity as well. As it is nice to have two opinions. I found the Supreme's much better than Sonicaps and Tony did not rate them much higher? All of our ears are slightly different. I found the dynamics alone wor...

Thanks UndertowNext week I will be ordering inductors as well. The CAST by Duelund I can not say for sure if dimishing returns as I did not find the VSF's to be dimishing returns but large returns. I used to think I could never listen to digital u...

I will update on the Silver in Oil. The last time I had it in I was not noticing the the upward tilt so much as it did seem as hours seem to be smoothing it out somewhat. I will try it again with Duelund and Supreme again. I need to know this for ...

UndertowI can not comment on Duelund in electronics. I have only being rebuilding the low voltage speaker crossovers. I agree on the obsene prices. I can not wait till you give your impression of the Duelund for the high freq. That is why I had or...

Undertow I did not mean anything bad against Clarity Cap. I see from Tony Gee they are rated very highly. I would have had them in my test if they were available from same supplier. I just did not like a couple of Clarity's comment's. Like this on...

Very good Undertow.I was interested in how some people like high resonating caps. Like my friend when he first heard the comparison he like the perceived "fullness" of the sound. Massive distortion is what it is. After awhile he got frustrated wit...
