Undertow
These speakers are made with a outboard crossover. You may be right with the whipped cream though.
The first whipped cream (Duelund tweeter capacitor) made the desert MUCH better. Maybe I was (incorrectly) thinking more whipped would be even better.
But what if it is a simple as digital going through a tube amp going through a liquid filled capacitor (the vintage one) took all the digital edge off? Like I said I had never heard ANY digital sound like that. I did not even believe my CD player could sound that good!
I am going to put the vintage back in the midrange and listen for a bit then put in the CAST tweeter caps. Might be interesting.
Undertow I was not just trying to improve my speakers part of it was maintanance. (28 year old caps) That is how the whole thread started. The speakers got noisy and I started with cheap plastic caps (Sonicaps) then Mundorf (ordered one Duelund just to see) and was shocked how they were all downgrades except the Duelund whose foil design match perfectly.
Back to the vintage in the midrange.
One thing for sure is foil caps sound very different (and better in my mind) than plastic. The Duelund and vintage sound much closer than any of the plastic caps to the foil.
Next putting in the CAST tweeter caps.
