In Reply to: Best "exotic" 2W resistors...? posted by andy evans on November 13, 2016 at 16:13:17:
The new Audio Note Silver Tantalums came out a year ago, and they are now my top choice for a neutral tonal balance, excellent detail and transparency, and excellent micro-dynamics. The only downside other than price is they take 100 hours or more to reach their full potential. Now carried by PartsConnexion.
The other new Audio Note resistors, the non-magnetic tantalums, are also very nice, but for a 2w I would pay a little more and get the silver.
