| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Jupiter caps are here and there is a MASSIVE size difference from the CAST. Not saying the Jupiter will not sound good but is much closer in size to the vintage than the CAST. In fact Jupiter is much smaller than the Jensen Copper Paper tube caps.... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Jupiter caps on the way. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Took apart the amp today to check on room for the small value Jupiter caps.What I seen was my other Duelund CAST cap is leaking the other one to the pair. It is a fairly new leak just started. (I could not hear it still sounds great) Not thrilled ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Interesting to read page #49.Much talk about inductors. Oddly enough the part most will "draw the line" on and to be honest so would have I...I have tried the vintage wax paper, North Creek and Duelund VSF. The North Creek was of a lower DCR and t... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Wow I just read page #48 and have not read page #49!I step out for a little while and Holy Smokes lots of action!Just at the part about John K. (sorry if I say something in page #49!)"If I mod'ed it it must be better". (posted by Johnk)That is EXA... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring Too bad wrong size on the North Creek. I have a 2.5mh North Creek but did go to Duelund VSF. I wish I had even went to CAST. (one of the only regrets)Treat inductors as every bit as important as caps if not more. Just shocking how much ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil GrannyringLooking forward to hearing Jupiter caps in small values. Duelund does not give the discount on small value CAST anymore.My vintage parts are wax paper and there for sure is some merit to it. Wax is really good in resonance reduction. The... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I have the amp with all the Duelund caps in bak with a CAST I had here replacing the leaky one.Waiting to get the replacement from Duelund.At first amp sounded off but I had the tech guy check things over. New cap, new Genalex rectifier tube, new ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil In a previous post I had mentioned the Ampohms sounded VERY much like vintage I want to test that again. I also said once the vintage in the midrange did not sound a lot different than my VSF and I might revisit that one. It might be me hearing th... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I do too Charlesdad.For right now I am going to put in some ampohm Copper Foil and might try the VCapcuft's I have here. I just can not take the vintage anymore! Farrrrr too many flaws.I am looking forward to hear some Jupiter caps! | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil After a couple weeks listening to the all vintage amp I have called the repair guy to basically beg him to fix the amp (move up the waiting list) with all the Duelund caps and some Jensen Paper Copper tube caps in. Vintage is just a mess! (timing ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Bill for sure did not want you to think you were being picked on.Frederik I think there is a natural skepticism people have to a company establishing a quality name and product and then claiming lower prices for the same product. (been done so man... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Tas my feeling on this is women do not care about HiFi... They do however love music. Another one that struck me a long time ago was my teenage daughter would say I am literally afraid (for real) to go into the basement and turn the corner. I know... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I think this has reached the point that Frederik should shed some light. My original CAST caps had this organic smell the last bunch did not? Or at least I remember the smell of the originals VSF and CAST.I can assure everyone they for sure are oi... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Charles In doing the testing one part change at a time was done to avoid trying to do sound tests by memory which I thought could lead to the brain saying it is better because I spent $$$ on it.Cost was another factor when I first bought Duelund p... |
