BEST HARMLESS/SIGNATURELESS SPEAKERS CAPACITORS.


Dear friends:I really need your helpwith first hand experiences with speaker crossover capacitors founded in next main experiences/tested premises: for a 3-way speaker design, high resolution audio systems, very low distortion audio systems, wide systems frequency range, " zero trade-offs ".

I know that the best capacitor is NO-capacitor, well I need your near to that full experiences with another desired premises from you: audio systems using SS electronics and mainly listening MUSIC through digital sources.

All your opinions/help are appreciated.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
R.

Hi: I imagine rthat knowing that many of you are not only engineers but with very high technical knowledge levels is " weird " that till today no one gives me the asked help on caps: 4-pin to 2-pin operation/conversion.

I don't think that no one knows about.

My email:  rauliruegas@hotmail.com

Again, thanks in advance and appreciated.

Dear friends: Always exist people willing to help or give an advise.

Things are that after the two caps set up at each speaker woofer crossover a gentleman " cross my life " and gaves me and advise for use not two but only one film caps, obviously that his advise is not for expensive " junkie " caps but for something similar of the ones I'm testing.

Of course that after my internet research finally I found out and bougth it and I think next week I could  make its set up if I already finished the two caps woofers evaluation.

I have to say that I never imagine, even that I looked at, to find out these 100uf caps.

Dear friends: Outstanding, overwhelming, wonderful, paramount, astonishing, incredible, marvelous, gorgeous, facinating, jawless, amazing, ligth years a head, orders of magnitude, impressive, stunning, startling, sensational, unexpected, etc, etc.

Does not exist one single adjective that can explain or tell us the unimaginable so high quality performance levels when we use true/real extreme low distortions/colorations capacitors in speaker crossovers: no matters what.

All those adjectives are not enough to explain it and in this new audio world the real meaning of those adjectives is too a NEW meaning and not the " normal " old audiophile meaning.

No one boutique expensive and " stupid " capacitor is good enough even to mention it against: KEMET or WIMA. All are true bs trash.

In the other side the capacitor learning lessons are not finished yet but now I know the true meaning of the engineering levels behind all these true capacitors as those named: KEMET or WIMA and some others down there.

Boutique caps are: one cap for any audio needs, no matters if is for speaker crossover, power supply, low level signals or coupling ( you name it. ).

Look how many kind of caps by its specific work to be used exist ( we can test any of them. ):

AC and Pulse Film Capacitors, , DC Link Film Capacitors, Electronic Equipment Film Capacitors, General Film Capacitors, Motor Run Capacitors, Power Factor Correction Film Capacitors, RC Snubber Film Capacitors, RF and Power Film Capacitors, RF Microwave Film Capacitors, SMD Film Capacitors , Snubber Film Capacitors, Stacked Film Capacitors, Suppression Film Capacitors , etc, etc.

or the termination type:


Axial Insert, Threaded, Lug, Quick Connect, Radial, Screw, SMD/SMT, Snap In, Solder Lug, Stud Threaded, Terminal Block ,Terminals Screw Wire , etc, etc.

Exist over 56K diferent film capacitor models by several manufacturers and on each specific manufacturer model exist diferent configurations/versions depending what we need ! ! ! !

One for all ! ! ? ? no way my friends.

Till today I tested diferent caps models coming from five diferent manufacturers. What a learning experiences that is a must to have for any true audiophile interested in MUSIC.

@grannyring , Paul erik and friends please enligth us all the engineering behind the boutique and expensive caps. From where came those extremely prices when those caps are heavy colored due to its inherent way high distortion levels.

I already posted here data sheets from WIMA and Vishay and we can take a look inside the Kemet or TDK or AVX sites data sheets and you will understand where belongs the true caps engineering against the $$$$$$ ones.

Gentlemans, the worst blind human been is the one that does not want to see. Don’t you think? because through this thread are posted facts that proves with out doubts the superiority of WIMA, KEMET and the like over those boutique caps where at least in this thread no one of you posted any single fact of its false superiority: where are those facts? ? ?

Dear @paulcreed : I want to tell thank you because you did the effort and took your time to test Wima caps, at least you was the only gentleman that posted about.

Appreciated too what you posted that reflect your honest kind of sound through those experiences.

Yes, dull sounds and I say yes because years ago I was " seated " ( more or less. ) where you are today and it took me time, patience, money, self training and a lot of first hand experiences ( very often. ) listening to nearfield live MUSIC events till I learned and were and are all those fully learning lessons what puts me here and that made that through this thread " things " happens and happened in a marvelous an totally unexpected ways because nothing of these ( Wima, Kemet and the like ) was planned before the begin of this thread. Just Wima was out of question an unimaginable .

I don’t finish yet, maybe at 70% of the end of the " road ". The name of this " game " is: tests after tests and all with the same unbiased attitude but the MUSIC.

I just ordered this cap:

it looks as an endless caps adventure/voyage. We will see to where the " winds " leave me to arrive.
