Top resistors

i agree with you on the assessment.  My friend bought nude foil for his Wilson Grand Slams speakers, it was just too much for his ears.  It was just too revealing for the Titanium tweeter.  I notice some of my equipments, the Nude Foil z series is very nice, super expensive especially the customized and low tolerance.   Looking to upgrade my Atmasphere preamp with Caddock resistors.   Thanks! 

Zippost how did your friend implement the Vishay nude foil?Singular or in a bridge configuration? Tom

Audionote tantulum carbon composit: one of the best resistor imho. Very natural sounding, super warm, pleasant sounding. Very good for tube gear.


You see, this **warm* character leads me back to 
Takman Metal resistors,, I am not looking for **warm** which to me means edges rounded off, details lost, lacking refinement..

Jadis puts metal resistors in all their amps for a  reason. 
For  fq separation, refinement. 
Tubes already add warmth, smoothes   any harsh edges, So adding tanatlum in the path will only add MORE warmth  which  would be duplicating  the work of the tubes. 
Besides the Takman are $1 fifty cents,, The Audio Note like $15 a  piece.. I need like 12 for the Jadis DPL, 
Jadis has metal and so to stay faithful to the  so called *Jadis sound* (mythological?) = best stay with metal. 

So Takman Metal *Rey* it will be. 
Will post a   YT vid once Richard Grey finishes the upgrade. 

Components nude Vishay TX2575 in several SS and tube phono & LS component


Problem with employing the fantastic Vishay Zfoils are price and only .6 watt, I need 1 watt, , won't work in my Jadis DPL, 
I went with Takman Metal REY series 1 watt @ $1.65 each

It was a single custom 2575 low tolerance and super low noise, in a single configuration, which was mounted from the back of the Wilson Grand slam.  The Vishay was too refine, just didn’t match with the Titanium tweeter that was on the speakers.
