MoFi controversy

You have got to be kidding me. I own dozens of Original Master Recordings from Mofi including a couple of One Steps, and would be upset if a ridiculous lawsuit caused them to go bankrupt. Whoever is suing them must not be a music lover, because it would lead to less competition and manufacturing of audiophile recordings.

I am not a lawyer (thankfully) but IMHO the only outcome of any lawsuit would be for MOFI to state the source/pressing process of each of their records, which they are now doing. The other damages are impossible to measure, and the only one getting paid would be the lawyers. We know what Bob Cray said about them....

Anyone trying to speculate buying their records and never playing them deserves what they get. For those of us who play them, we get the enjoyment, and if their value goes down as a result of this PR/Marketing blunder, so be it - that's life in the big city. I'm not selling - that will be my kids or wife's loss.

Dear @atmasphere  . : Thank's, I already understand that but as anything in audio always exist a trade off and we need to choose what we think is the best trade-off and seems to me that the crossover caps makes more degradation to the signal reproduced by those woofers that the eventually " distortion " generated with out the caps.

In the other side those woofers goes down to 16hz and common sense ( not with technical foundation. ) tells me that it does not play way higher than its crossover design at 450 and as a fact still have a first order filter through the in series inductor.

Anyway, you explanation appreciated. Thank's again.

Americans love to sue, sue, sue and that is what is on full display here there is no demonstration of any suffering, loss, or injury just a chance to pick up some $$$USD.

Dear @atmasphere : " If I were you I’d be looking at a better quality capacitor rather than simply removing them. "

One of the latest 5 years targets in my system was changes inside my speakers to improve its QS and was precisely to find out the best caps out there and that " find out " took me as 3 years of tests, patience and a lot of money till I choosed the best caps no matter what.

But even that with not only a truly neutral cap with very low developed distortions and that in any operation condition makes the rigth job still the best cap is no cap at all and that’s why the trade-off I choosed is no cap.

Yesterday I remember whom was the ADS L 2030 designer that after left ADS ( several years ago ) started his own speaker manufacture that’s Aerial Acoustics and I sended an email asking for his advice. He was the creator of my loudspeakers. We will see.

Btw, maybe you or some one else could think that if I spended heavy money with the caps adventure why not put that money in a new speakers and seems logic but it's not only that I'm accustom to my ADS but that are really good performers even today and in the other side maybe I need over 50K to be in the same league than my ADS and need more money than that to outperformed and who knows about because all those very good and very expensive speakers its crossovers are full of bs " boutique/fancy " caps that's what the audiophiles are looking for but all of them from Duelund to teflon V-caps and passing for Mundorf ant the like are way colored caps, as a fact the less colored of those  kind of caps are the Alumen by jantzen. Another issue with those expensive speakers is that in the crossovers almost always use by-pass caps as the Duelund silver that almost all audiophiles love and that been a by-pass is almost stupid because helps to nothing down there. Anyway, I will wait for the L 2030 designer advise.
