....better parts.Fuses, teflon capacitors, output transistors - even Bybee's "music rails" are just better parts used in a novel way (in power supply).
Pass, Hegel co. are just two that are reaping benefits from this advance. But even Merlin (speaker co.) says that the new capacitors are a big breakthrough, in sound
The Upgrade Co. makes quite a stink about "shielding" the signal path. But it seems to be *parts quality* that is making the difference. That's if we follow the reviews. First review of Upgrade Co. -good, 4 years later -more parts, better sound.
My question is - what took so long for this to happen ?
