VH Audio Vcaps

Mr. Dgarretson,
Please describe the break-in characteristics you heard after installing the new Claritycap MR caps in your cross-overs. Thanks.

Sherod, while MR sounds good cold, over 100 hrs soundstage opens & cap becomes supple, relaxed, airy, and natural. I have it in tweeter above 2200 hz. After 100 hours I made other changes to the system and lost track of MR development. I have another pair of MRs coming in for woofer and will track long break-in more closely on this go-round.

Thanks, Dave. My MR caps currently have about 50 hours on them in my preamp outputs. I have previously had Vcap OIMP and Hovland Musicaps in there and so far, the break-in seems to be much gentler with the MR caps than with the others. The Hovlands and Vcaps were like a giant roller coaster ride while the MR caps are like a little kiddie-ride. The extreme frequencies have extended somewhat so far and the mids are finally starting to open up and relax a bit. I'm hoping for a little better relaxing of the MR caps with the next 50 hours on them. We'll see. By the way, I look forward to reading your impressions of the sound of the MR caps on your woofer crossover.

I just had my JADIS JS1 date uopdated with Aura-Cap's and sthealth diodes. Right out of the DAC sound was exceptional. I guess it will continue to improve!
