RCA Caps


Is anyone using RCA caps (plugs) on their unused audio connectors?

I'm considering going with either Telos or Cardas.

I like the idea of keeping dust out of these while benefitting from EFI/RFI rejection.

I'm saturated in RF, for me the Cardas caps replaced tin foil and have reduced RF noise issues, but have not solved them entirely.

James, there is a real good chance that true shorting plugs will provide an improvement over the non-shorting Cardas caps. Do a search for them on ebay, where I found mine. I then sold my Cardas, as they were inferior to the far cheaper plugs. As a bonus, I got more for the Cardas caps than I paid for the plugs!
@geoffkait - I guess subtelty is not my strong suit :) Thanks for the award.
After my long time ownership and factory tweaking of the SP-10 preamp, my continued contact with ARC was mainly due to maintenance and refurbishment of my Dual 75a, which is now dormant again, but I bought a whole host of parts for it to be refurbished a few times, the last right before the company got sold. I used to deal with Leonard-- they were always pretty nice to me, and followed up.
