Ceramic caps are NOT TO BE USED ACROSS THE AC LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are NOT SELF HEALING and are a FIRE HAZARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good one bro. I am thoroughly crushed and humiliated by your brutal take down. Once again, good work! I don't offer the advice of a larger TYPE X SAFETY capacitor OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. I do it because I have listened to larger caps and found that they sound better, as have others. THE ONLY WAY TO TELL IF SOMETHING SOUNDS BETTER IS TO LISTEN TO IT. Maybe Mikey would like it? Now go slither away instead of admitting you are wrong about the ceramic caps. A good thing about this forum is that wrong advice can be corrected as my use of large amount of capacitance from hot to ground was pointed out as being a shock hazard. Live and learn. Warmest T456
