Home Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

Agree somewhat with nightdoggy,

although I do not have experience comparing non-magnetic metal oxide resistors (if there are such things) with the typical magnetic variety. I've found that any part with steel components (resistors, capacitors) sounds worse than similar parts that do not contain steel. I do like silver-mica capacitors but have not found any that do not have steel wire leads.

The old-style Holco and PRP resistors sold by Michael Percy sound the best to me.
