[sdiy] "VINTAGE AUDIO" capacitors

[Tim Ressel]

Look, if they promise that capacitors rolled on the thighs of virgins at midnight on a full moon while chanting the name of Frank Mcintosh, who are we to argue? Just pay up and be grateful  ;-)

Myself, I go on the 10/90 rule: Make the 10% change that will make a 90% difference. Leave off with the $5000 cables and fix your damn room acoustics. What good are platinum-iridium caps if you've got a bad RT-60 from 2 parallel walls?


I chant Frank Mcintosh, but also Wallace Clement Sabine.

Stumbled onto this link tonight

"
Vintage capacitors are much better for music applications because they were engineered for sound and actually SOUND much better - they are one of the main reasons why vintage amplifiers are so prized and sought-after.

After years of painstaking research and development, in 2003 SoZo Amplification began manufacturing the SoZo Mustard Cap™ capacitors, which quickly caught on among discriminating musicians and amp designers. Now, hundreds of thousands of capacitors later, SoZo has engineered several product lines optimized for different products, including amps by Marshall, Fender, Vox, HiWatt, and others, as well as professional sound gear from Neve, API, Neumann, Universal Audio, Urei, and virtually any quality gear from the 1950's on."
