speaker capacitors-----leave alone or does it open pandora's box ?
opened up my speakers and noticed that they use Audyn capacitors. while the speakers sound good, are there better capacitors out there ? and if yes, could these be changed out and if they were, what effect does it have on the sound
Ah, yep. Try out the TruCopper Audyn's as bypass caps. :) Buy one or two pairs and try them out. I have had good luck with using aligator clips to tie them on without soldering first. Be warned, they are physically much larger than the red versions, so don't go crazy buying them until you have some idea of space available. :) Best, E |
Try below listed link Some good info on Cap's and there characteristic's / sonic qualities Brad http://www.humblehomemadehifi.com/Cap.html |
OP: The TruCopper are limited in values and very very expensive compared to the reds. If memory serves, they start around $20 for 0.1uF, that's pretty pricey. Building up say a 4 uF cap would run you around $120-$150 each. This is why I recommend you try them out as bypass caps to start. For far less, I'd recommend the Clarity CMR range, with Audyn 0.1uF bypass on values larger than 4-5 uF. Again, these are BIG parts. You best be prepared to wire them. :) It is a MUCH easier thing for a newbie to buy some bypass caps and listen. Cheaper too. Best, Erik |
