Anyone tried new Mundorf top dog film resistor M-Resist Ultra?
Somtime eraly next year I plan to have madisound build new xovers for my Seas Thors , using M caps and these new M Resist in the design.
Will posta comment on howwell t the xovers perform. As a note,, just had my Defy7 modded , tech suggested using Carbon film resistors , taking out the old metal res(maybe takman),,,immediaetly i called him, and suggested we take out the carbon and use the Takman metal we ordered and were sitting in his shop..That old Jadis sound returned.
The carbon were smooth, but lacked that sparkle in the metal res,,,the Jadis engineers employed Metal for that reason. The Metal seem to breath life into the soundstage.
The Carbon are too smooth, that is lacks dynamics, Some may perfer that smoothness, and perhaps in some tube amps thats a good thing taking the edges off some of the spikey midrange.
Jadis makes a smooth circuitry, so carbon are not needed.
