in the paper and it is a difficult process form what I have read. AN is very expensive. I stocked up on mine while still available and while some were actually on sale. I mostly have the non polar, as that is what I like best. Then often I do a dual non polar with the outer foil to the inner in parallel. You get almost no inductance and the esr is just about gone.

I used to do that all the time myself. Some argued against it, but I thought it sounded slightly better so I used it all the time. Perhaps the process of impregnating the paper is what is protected. I suppose you could pull up the patent and go from there. You may want to ask a lawyer, but I suspect that no one would care as long ad you are not selling a product or a service. The trouble you would have to go through to make a few caps would make it far too laborious for anyone to economicly profit from it.

it. If nothing more, you are increasing the capacitance and depending upon where you are doing this, that normally isn't a bad thing. I can measure the decrease in ESR with an expensive cap meter I have and inductance is reduced as well. Seems good to me. :^)

I know, but folks just want to argue I suppose. They want yo know it all, to be smarter than test equipment, etc. I forget the exact name assigned to the configuration, was it super e or some such? Anyway they would claim the theory had been disproven. Math and physics supported it, my listening supported it, so rather than arguing with them, I just ignored what they said and kept using it. One of the first things that was harped on in boot camp was that "Opinions are like anuses, everyone has one and they all stink." They may have use more pedestrian/colorful language to described the anus...

Super E configuration. Yep, used it a lot. Less now since BG's are something I am frugal with.

One thing I never did a lot of was testing resistors. I figured out quickly that sand cast resistors are crap. I replaced them with Mills, but was wondering for high wattage applications which ones you prefer, assuming you have tweaked crossovers. I think many really like the gold Dales. Of course the list is nearly endless. Then there is an outfit in Texas I have heard of who talk about nude resistors for audio if my memory has it right. Have you tried many power resistors?

John PA-
did you find an SACD player?
Very cool stuff guys.
