| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Rctau thanks for the help. I have talked to Al on the phone. I am trying to keep as close as possible to original or better of course. I never would have thought that to be a tough thing. I will have to wait to see but have the feeling a plastic c... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Rchau I think most would say the original A network that Paul Klipsch himself designed would be the best or the AA. The AA came out at the time of SS with added tweeter protection. The new crossovers seem to be hit and miss. The interesting part i... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Face I will be doing something and my gut says just get the Mundorf's. I was surprised to (and somewhat not) hear that old caps did do something special. I think the oil in the Klipsch does something and caps are wayyyy more important than I thoug... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Rchau thanks for the help I will answer what I can.Almost 2 years ago now they went bad. In the sense of bad I mean the noise level went up. The sound on SS gear became harsh. Resistors? I do not think they have any? The midrange from that Alnico ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnK the Klipsch are only my second system. You may be right and I have taken that advice. I am doing the crossover with Alpha core or Mundorf inductors. If that does not clean up the bass I will go no further into the Silver in Oil caps or any o... | |
| Deep Cleaning Records With Steam? davidsss I think the tick is sometimes maybe mold. I often wonder if the heat is enough to release the mold? I think dirt as well and one guy menttioned not needing a RCM. I still do not regret buying mine. It just works even better now. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnK I have to admit to never being so frustrated with speakers (or any audio gear) in my life. The Klipsch have a "real" sound that can't be beat. (that I have heard) Yet the annoying down side can it be fixed? The thing that the Sonicaps took a... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I could hear the Sonicaps breakin even when they were in there. I am having the crossover rebuilt with new inductors as well. Do you find them to make a difference as well? Only makes sense to me as I heard some of them have 300ft of wire. Good wi... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnK thanks for the response. Do you feel Sonicaps to be better than the original film in oil in the Klipsch. I did not find them to be in one key area. The way music felt "alive" with the old caps. There was lots of other problems but they do ex... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Since buying the vintage amp I keep waiting for the honeymoon period to wear off. I can't believe how good it sounds! Boy did I miss out all these years with vintage tubes and Klipsch! I am still getting the cap rebuild. I do NOT believe this stor... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Looks like Mundorf Silver in Oil network is back on. Anyone build a "A" Klipsch network as opposed to the "AA" network that came after. The "A" network has no tweeter protection and is from the tube era. Klipsch went to "AA" when tweeters were blo... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Johnk any idea where I can get good paper in oil caps? I would like to stay that way as I found the plastic caps change the nature of the speakers. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sorry JohnK what I meant to say was that the average person (meaning 100,000+) bought just the Fisher 500c receiver. Meaning the mass market was pretty dam good 50 years ago. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I have bought the tube Fisher x100d. I have to say I wish I had tubes all these years I had Klipsch speakers. So crossover is back on. Being used as a seccond system. Man the U.S. used to make some real good stuff! It is a shame what has happened ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Guy came to buy the Klipsch Lascala's. I had him bring his own tube amp. I didn't think it fair for him to listen on my gear. One thing for sure is old tube gear sounds much better with Klipsch. The bass was wooly but from the midrange up they sou... |
