Grannyring you like those Duelund Silver bypass?My tweeter in my speakers uses (2) 2uf. (can use 2.2uf) and I have replaced one speaker in bedroom system and trying to figure out what to do? That Duelund bypass is that good?I might have to do a co...

In my opinion Audioman there is absolute better as you mentioned, foil vs. plastic then in fine tuning it can be synergy of every part in the system which can be what works best in synergy.Jupiter does not make 2.2uf Copper Foil 100v cap that I us...

Hello AudiomanNo doubt on foil caps sounding better!Yes the Jupiter is cheaper at low uf values but at .47uf about the same and at 1uf actually costs more.Compared to Duelund RS that is which I feel is the best comparison. I have used both and lea...

Grannyring I do not think you can buy the Mallory caps anymore?I will post pics of mine, which I have not heard. I do not think Mallory was so special just still making vintage power supply caps in the can like 50's and 60's and would have worked ...

I uploaded some pics of the man cave.We have a set of Pearl Drums in the basement. I use them now for sound comparisons with the speakers. I have to admit the sound is close but real drums have more energy than speaker reproduced sound.I wish I wo...

I am glad to see on Jeff's Yazaki-san mention his old Marantz 7 pre-amp and the power supply cap. (Mallory)In one of my old Fisher amps (I was going to part out) has (what looks like a late 70's early 80's) Mallory power supply caps which I am goi...
