In Reply to: RE: Mundorf M-Lytic HC+ 4-Pole 250V 22,000uF storage caps posted by Jack Williams on September 02, 2014 at 18:54:29
Hello Jack
I have the MA-1 Silver edition.
Ralph has brought it up to the latest version.
I have done a few minor upgrades myself. Increased the High Voltage power supply's total capacitance, and changed the full wave bridge rectifiers to IXYS high current (32 amp I believe).
The 4-Pole caps are pretty simple to install. The FWBR supply power to the input +ve and -ve, with the signal wires connected to the output +ve and -ve.
I have my smoothing caps on the signal terminal portion.
Follow Ups:
This evening I decided to remove my smoothing caps on the Mundorf 4-poles.
The Mundorf's now have no caps attached.
Maybe I was in a good mood this evening, but I would swear it's getting even better. I believe a type of distortion is gone.
Tomorrow I will try a 1.2uF Clarity cap in place of the Duelund CAST PIO's that where installed (15uF).
Question; do the caps installed across the +ve and -ve poles of a storage cap typically introduce intermodulation distortion?.
Maybe- if they were able to resonate somehow. Did you measure IM?
