I stand corrected. The ODAM are $90 from Vcap while the Miflex are $66 from Partsconnexion. The $1200 was for CuTF however and it should have been $2200+ Must be having a pre-senior moment.
help on changing capacitors
Hello every one I need advice...I have a balanced audio technology vk-5i preamplifier that needs to change the output capacitors they are rated 1mfd at 400vdc this use to be made by Jensen but they are no longer in business, I contacted Bat but they asked more than 450 us for changing them, can you recommend a substitute and what brand should I buy?

@ausaudio Thanks for the info. I probably have in 150 different caps in my shop right now. My quotes as I thought that I eluded to are about the type of caps in general. I have a few different PIO, they seem to share a rich tone quality, but not as detailed as some other caps that I prefer. My note about Digikey having Jensen was only because I looked. I had no idea that they were out of business. 140208 Jensen Capacitors | Capacitors | DigiKey Marketplace |
Right. Caps are easily swapped. Think of it not as a repair but as an upgrade. Shop for your caps the same way you would shop for any other component- by listener impressions. Agreed with @millercabon. The most accurate source of listening impressions in my experience is humbleHifi. He's always right on the money to my ears. http://www.humblehomemadehifi.com/Cap.html |
