Re: Finished another Edana

Doh!

I have this one and it says it does capacitance up to 4uf. I'm officially a dumbass. Never mind. http://www.radioshack.com/product/i...&y=6&x=6&numProdsPerPage=20&parentPage=family

When this football game is over, I'm going to go check out the tolerances of my orange drops, my mallory 150s and my sozo's. Yes, I'm an amp dork, measuring capacitance values late on a Saturday night.

Couldn't wait, went outside during halftime. Duh. Sozo's were closeer than 5%. Mallory 150's weren't far behind (marked 5%). orange drops next. Not bad. I have a handfull of yellow chinese generic mustard caps that are marked 10%. Several fell outside that range.

The meter won't go over 4 uf, so I really couldnt' check the electrolytics which are marked +/- 20%, but I usually over do it there anyway.

So, terry and alex, no worries as yours were built with M150's and they are all closer in tolerance than 5%.

No worries at all, sounds just fine to me anyway. :smokin:

Yeah? You're 15! You probably have Dog Ears at this point! Take care of them! Glad you're still digging it.

I need you at my house when I'm trying out all these different components that only add like 0.05 % of a tone difference!

I had SoZo caps & Mercury transformers put into a Bassman clone that I bought they made it sound like a different amp. Great stuff.

Actually, I was trying to get Scott to install these in 007 for me at the same cost...

I refuse to put a 65 dollar capacitor in an amp. But, feel free to when you get it home! ahah!

75lp, I'm betting the new MM trannies made more of a difference than the caps did! Putting great transformers in place of mediocre ones can simply astound your ears.
