The two times I had the chance to compare yielded the same results. The poor Sprague sounded a bit anemic compared to the Astron.

The JJ would be better replacements than the Atoms and this for maybe $3 more.

The Cerafines are better but these should be reserved for the elite, which I am a part of.

Ryan,

hate to rain on your parade but most of the Caps in the HF81 are Ceramic discs and the cheapest money could buy at the time ! They used 4 pyramids in the preamp section and 2 wax jobs in the phono section (Edit some amps had the wax paper jobs in the preamp section also). The main couplers are indeed ceramic disc ! I won't go into the Mylar argument with you because you know I myself and all my customers disagree so no reason to mull over past arguements. I just wonder when you decided that coiupling caps should be left in these amps ! You sure never advocate them being left in the Scott list server and forum ? If the way Scott amps sound in there stock form today is the way they sounded back in the hay day no wonder they went belly up !

Hey, how about staying on topic? And that would be FOOD.

If you ever get to beautiful little Glen Burnie way, stop in at Roys Kwik Korner and get yourself a Baseball Crabcake sandwich. Tacky website but if you are really hungry, this is the place. It is all carryout.

I remember the owner, Mike, said that you can have crabs flown to whereever you may be.
