As far as I am concerned, Sonic Craft's new capacitor is simply amazing.
Why is that new cap so big?
For one, it is a film and foil cap.Secondly it is rated at 800 VDC.The standard Sonicap is 220 VDC for values of 1.0 and larger, and some larger values are available in 425 VDC and 630 VDC.In the smaller values (below 1.0uF) the standard Sonicap is rated at 630 VDC.
I'm almost completely helpless when it comes to DIY. I have a pair of Soliloquy 5.3 floorstanders, and based on some posts I've read, suspect that bipassing my tweeter crossovers with these new caps would make a nice improvement. Would my local electonics guy be able to install the caps or does it require a PHD in electrical engineering? The last thing I want to do is damage my beloved 5.3s. Thanks for any feedbackMatt
I probably will not get the oppurtunity to hear these caps in x-overs so I'll be interested in hearing what others say.
By the way, anybody here have any experience with the new SoniCap Gen2 capacitors? I have already had time to do my evaluation but will not post my findings till I see what others have heard.
Newbie question: what are the benefits of higher voltage caps for speaker crossover?
Danny, will you be selling the new caps and if so, when will they be available?
