Danny,
You directed me to this forum page from comments on the YouTube Sonus Faber Venere upgrade video. My initial question on the video was, do you ever use higher-end components in your XO designs and rebuilds.
I sent the follow inquire to Mundorf's information email, but have yet to receive a reply.
I want to upgrade the Mundorf components on my speaker crossovers.
I have a set of PAP Quintet15 Horn1 open baffle speakers with a two-way first order parallel crossover. The inductor for the low pass filter is the FERON ICore BS140-10 10 mH, 0.35 Ohm, and the capacitor for the high pass filter is the MCap250-33 33 microfarad.
Are the following items suitable upgrades for performance gains, and which out of the listed coils below would be the better choice?
Upgrade to:
Inductor MCoil AirCore CFC10-10 10 mH 0.50 Ohm, or, VLCU-12-10 10 mH 0.71 Ohm, or, VL300-10 10 mH 0.38 Ohm
Capacitor MCap SUPREME EVO SilverGold.Oil SESGO-33T2.600 33 microfaradAre these the only values available? Is there a model for 33 microfarads?
Sonic wise, how do the Copper Caps compare to Mundorf's TOL cap?
Have you used these capacitors in any of your XO designs?
Thanks,
Eric Harrelson
