Come on, tell us what they are exactly! And how are they better?

They're Siemens MKV, Polypropylene in oil. I think they're motor-run caps.

Loads better mate.

Clearer, more detailed the feeling nothing is added or taken away.

I have tweaked my mods list by trying to seperate it into sections to make it easier to follow.

Nice one Brent. I just realised that I haven't done the coax mod! Time to get that sorted then.

Still have to figure out how to mount those output caps...

The RF to HF is the most important one. I have not fitted the Kimber V21 yet. Thats going in next week after Simon has been to here the cdp with new caps tomorrow.

Just tack them inplace with hotglue for now

Thomo,

Blimey!!! Think there's more than your caps that you need to think about!
Nice to see all those mods, but surely the positioning of components and cabling is going to cause some ill effect on the sound quality, namely the interference produced on the Digital feed!?

But being that your a 'Paolo Nutini' fan, I'd expect that!

Can't wait to see the photos once you've mounted those caps!

It sure is one amazing rat's nest!
