| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Installed the Duelund RS plus finished installing Jupiter's in the phono stage and moved Jupiter to office system and the VCap Cuft I have as well. (all tonight) Spent a few hours listening tonight and first impression is promising. (of the RS)I s... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JunkerI was glad to see on Tony Gee cap review he retreated the Supremes up to 10 from 9.He had them rated not much better than Sonicaps and to me they were much better. (good value and better than the Silver in Oil I thought)JetDuelund is all abo... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Happy New Year to all!Getting pumped to get the soldering iron going!This thread was meant to not declare an official cap winner but to give someone an idea of what to expect when installing caps and to know their priorities upfront. My priorities... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil In all the testing I have done in 4 years here I have yet to find the smaller capacitor be more dynamic than a bigger one given a cap of the same style.The Mundorf Supreme was much more dynamic than a Sonicap... I expect the Duelund RS to be more ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The Tannoy Westminster crowd that is putting in CAST love them. I find CAST is stunning in dynamics. The Jupiter's are good at the noise reduction but the dynamics are just not there. Now if the cap was 5x bigger???My guess is someone who likes ho... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil GrannyringFor sure on the 200 hours. (much more)I am not anti Jupiter and will be installing more. The phono stage in this amp will be all Jupiter. They are very quiet. For the money not bad...The caps mentioned on here are all good ones. The VCap... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Merry Christmas to all.I have much to read on here to "catch up". I guess we all have different preferences when listening and what we can forgive. Grannyring finds the CAST too tipped upward for warmth. In comparison to Jupiter I would not argue.... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring and RicevsI am going to try this as well. I know removing a screw in the woofer signal was one of the biggest upgrades I have got so far and it cost nothing.It was truly shocking the signal went through a cheap screw.Duelund RS caps are... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Interesting.This thread oddly enough started with bi-amped Linn speakers. Linn also is into Aktiv. (as they call it) In terms of value for the $ I think straight bi-amp or tri-amp is maybe the worst value! In my speakers I could barely hear the di... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Irish65Good to see you post again! Have you tried the RS series? I am going to put an order in as replacements for my leaking CAST today. I found going down much harder to go than it was getting better caps! For the first time Duelund is making me... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil CharlesYes audio is subjective in the sense of tone. I could easily the less energy of the Jupiter's. Should it have been anything else? The CAST is way bigger. I am still waiting for the smaller cap to be as dynamic. I am not even upset with the ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Have completed the Jensen Copper Paper tube vs. the Jupiter Copper test.My choice would be the Jensen. The cap that gets almost no attention has not even been rated by Tony Gee which is only a notch below the Duelund caps. The Jupiter is quiet but... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I have some VCap Cuft. Not my cup of tea as Jimmy would say.They are interesting though. Super fast charge and discharge. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil If the Jupiter was 5x bigger...I have not ever yet found the smaller type cap of the same type to be more dynamic. Sonicaps vs. Mundorf Jensen vs. vintageCAST vs. VSFVintage vs. vintage.Even in the sought after vintage amps the caps were bigger th... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil CharlesFor sure the Jupiter's more like CAST than the VCap's. I think they have some fine traits as well. I wonder if we all put different weights on different things? Plus is there a measurement of how much energy is stored in a cap? When replaci... |
