Hello. I gave up trying to buy good caps down here, it became really hard, no way to get good capacitors in some values, so I have to choose between this 2. I''ve searched the …
Manufacturers are beginning to designate some types "for audio," and frequently tout the measured performance of these "good" SMT caps against the clearly inferior X7R types for dramatic effect. Yet we seldom see …
Looking for the best capacitor kits for your electronic projects? Our experts have compiled a list of the top 7 kits, covering every type of capacitor.
Polypropylene is the material of choice for the dielectric. If your caps mentions this word, odds are favorable that it''s a good cap. Of course, there are other material choices …
What are The Pros and Cons of the Capacitor? When it comes to choosing a capacitor, there are some pros and cons that you should be aware of. On the one hand, …
First rule : choose the good capacitor for the main value, then only make the final coocking with the small values if needed. A lythic can do as a cheap MKT... or not : it is …
For a good cap, it will charge up to the full supply voltage and you should read zero volts across the resistor. A bad or reversed polarity cap will keep leaking current and the …
Most competently-made capacitors are good for some purpose in audio, although no cap is good for all purposes. Avoid fakes. Choose the right capacitor technology …
Too transparent you say Skye, go hunt for some low value like 10uf BG Std or BG N caps & parallel them to your Ps caps, will reduce transparency & add Tone. lol. The Vishay …
It sounds like a bad ground or power connection, and if you''re not a DIY''er, then I advise that you find a good Auto-Elec shop, not a mechanic. The ECU''s are very reliable, so …
I''m planning to replace them with SLPX682M100H9P3 by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE), which I hear makes good capacitors. It is 35x50mm and I am not sure if I …
Re: The GOOD Capacitors Thread!! I have salvaged many Sanyo 3300 x 6.3v lytics adjacent the CPU from Azza boards and re-use them. Admittedly they are in the …
Capacitors are essential in audio engineering. They maintain power during peak loads, smooth out noisy signals, and help create the sounds we love. In this article, we will explore what …
In my opinion, the fake capacitors are one of the biggest contributors to the …
In my opinion, the fake capacitors are one of the biggest contributors to the overall failures on cheap gear (not so much HiFi, but consumer electronics in general). When it …
A while ago I posted a link to this article, which talks about the some of most common applications for capacitors (with direct application to Synth DIY) and which types are …
I have heard many good reviews of Vishay film caps for audio applications although my own knowledge is pretty limited. I am interested in audio but more so as a former …
So I went and found some data sheets for some other random 22µF 450v caps: United Chemicon Nichicon ... That leaves quality measurably on-par with good-quality caps. …
Manufacturers are beginning to designate some types "for audio," and frequently tout the measured performance of these "good" SMT caps against the clearly inferior X7R …
Anyway, most crap caps test in spec new for long time now, they at least learned that (well, besides cheap high-voltage caps, there are still fake capacities in El Cheapo PSUs). …
Film capacitors are generally preferred to electrolytic capacitors due to lower distortion, lower dielectric absorption (DA) and low dissipation factor (DF). In short, film …
How many capacitors are built by one company and then private labeled for many other brands? Let me know how you go about determining higher quality and durable …
