Hi all,

Just had a question about the 960: are the bypass caps that are there
essentially a just-in-case precaution?

Bypass caps, from what I understand, are there to reduce noise. And
correct me if I'm wrong, but most of us that are using the 960 would
probably be also using a power supply with its own bypass caps.

Do the caps then only apply to certain of the power connectors, like
the one on the side of the caps? Or is it the case that if you
connect from a PSU to one of the .156 connectors - or any other spot,
for that matter - that it would pass the caps?

You'll have to forgive me if there's a schem out of there somewhere
that would explain this - I didn't see one.

thanks,
Matthew
