Full Range Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I experimented with Russian Paper In Oil (PIO) capacitors in the bass section of my La Scala crossovers After living with the PIO capacitors for a while I have decided to go back to the Jentzens Not that they were bad in the scheme of things - just not to my liking 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Are you guys able to share any of the measurements you had done? Curious what the test conditions were and if you did any hysteresis plots too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 They measure different but sound the same. They measure different and sound different. They measure the same and sound the same. They measure the same and sound different. Haven't you been paying attention? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just means you're measuring the wrong thing, or you're correlating your experience to the wrong metrics. I truly believe it's that simple. Isn't this hobby all about discovering new musical experiences? And is it not helpful to correlate and find language to describe the things we experience? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 You’ve known me a long time. I was being facetious. I’m fairly lukewarm about this topic now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facetiousness and sarcasm, two qualities my previous employer didn’t appreciate about my personality, but I made them a $hitload of money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 2 black Cross caps - each are 39uF I would prefer the Superior Z caps but they would be huge or multiple caps at the values required I isolated them for the Russian PIO test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
