[quote user="deemon"]Brian , I never tried SSG cap in phonostage . SSG has a good reputation ..... but I'd prefer teflon for coupling . Mica caps , even good ones like SSG , seems too "bright" for me , but teflon sound pretty neut...

Referring to the threads a few month back: http://www.romythecat.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=4937 I wonder if I need to play with the coupling cap between the first and second stage. Now I have my beloved ElectrocuCube 950. In my former version...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: What is the buzz: the V-Caps? in Audio Discussions  19 Replies 
As always I tend to play around, experimenting with components in my equipment a little bit.  I strongly believe not enough emphasis is placed on topology and the physical layout of the circuit, as sometimes people forget that a circuit is a phy...

Well, I thought there was a lot of this going on all along, but that we just haven't come up with much that is "universal" in the usual, "what do you recommend?" sense yet?  Maybe this is because one person's Cu PIO is another person's...

It seems like lots of folks use parts to try to tune/voice their systems, and the V-Caps are just another option, IMO.  No matter what people think of new parts as they break them in, they will eventually tire of the overall sound from...

[quote user="anthony"]Thanks for your insight Romy.  I can see your point about not needing to worry too much in the DSET about coupling cap performance at higher frequencies but I would imagine that the crossover filter caps are quite import at t...
