Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
Well the WE wire is here.I sure hope it brings me incredible audio joy! 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
I thinking got the last of the Red wire on the spool just black left.I ordered red and black.

Charles this sure gives a look at what a designer goes through!Some of this big (meaning caps) improvement, so more of the same will be better, right? No unfortunately not always...

Thanks Charles I will be! (following my heart)All new caps in amp and just killed it! Unless it improves drastically and I doubt it I will start putting back in some vintage.I suspect it is the line stage now Jensen and Jupiter and it was Jupiter ...

So far it is not all good...Resonance is the key and I think we need just the right amount. Vintage caps have it in spades. But lack detail off the midrange.New caps lower resonance but this takes some life out of the midrange.I know exactly how i...

When replacing the vintage caps (first 5) in the amp the improvement was huge! EVERYTHING was wayyyy better.The last 6 now in. Just settling in. Every time I have done this the first cap replaced in the circuit seems to make more difference. I wil...

Caps all installed. Hope it sounds better, it was sounding very good! Just waiting on Western Electric wire then if all goes well looking forward to doing the third amp in Mr Yakaki-san's choice of caps.Plus building the recommended interconnects.

I had mentioned synergy before.In the office system I bought a pair of Klipsch Heresy's. I bought them for one reason the Alnico Tweeter. My Lascala's have Alnico dual phase mid range driver. (most sought after only made for a matter of months)I t...

Micheal Fremer on best system he ever heard in life.The same system where his quote there was an ENORMOUS difference in one capacitor. Best system ever heard in you life?A fellow in Greece who was kind enough to fly me over to hear his system. Eno...

Michael Fremer article on capacitors and resistors.Question to Micheal?What importance do you think to the use of built in elements in products? Is there a need of exotics parts?I am not sure what you mean by "built in elements". Need for 'exotic ...

For me WE is not a new direction. On the (capacitor thread) it was all about hearing a vintage tube amp smoke my (fairly expensive $10k) SS on my existing Alnico Lascala's. I could not believe it. Real sound as Yazaki-san would say!Since then all ...

I have some WE coming so I hope MMMV does not apply.In following Jeff's suspect not. If he gets those Khorns we could end up exactly the same!

The WE wire is on it's way.From someone who said they did not care for the wire it has an amazing mid range. That is a pretty big deal!WE 16ga vs. Duelund Silver 2.0. (slight cost difference)Loser goes to the vastly improving office system. Both a...
