Re: Replacing CJ Polystyrene caps to Mundorf Silver in Oil on CJ amps

Posted by fred_troy@hotmail.com on April 25, 2007 at 12:53:22:
Here's a different view. I have a CJ PV8 preamp. When it was stock, compared it to a upgraded PAS, which ran circles around it. Upgraded the PV8 line level section to PV11 which did improve the head room. Started playing with coupling caps, sound difference was not small. Tried from very expensive caps to orange drops and many in-between. Sound changed each time. I did all of this after switching to an OTL amplifier which revealed everything.
So, from my experience, experiment. Depends a lot on the rest of the system, and what you like. No right or wrong answers, just what you like.
