I read the specs on above class D HT receiver and they mention "pure water caps" in output stage to give a clearer sound.

Couldn't find any info on-line. Does anybody know what benefits these have?

Pure, very pure, water caps. How about a cap that can handle 10 million volts? Some very exiting research is being done in this area. Charging these caps up and discharging them in 100 nanoseconds at 20 million amps. Into what you may wonder, mostly X-ray generators in fact the most powerful ones there are. Do a search on the subject for more interesting info. Like generating small earth quakes! Terawatts can do that!

Ps. didn't find a thing as relates to the caps the Panasonic uses.

Can't really find any info on-line. Do you think these caps would have an advantage soundwise?

Who sells v pure water capacitors?

Is this another reason for buying a non feedback, power DAC such as the panny SAXR55? Good reports on SQ

onixuser,

the output caps are the teal/turqoise row of caps located next to the mosfet's. With a high water content, I wonder what the longevity of these caps are?
