Hey,

Do anyone on this forum have experiences with ClarityCaps in speaker-crossovers? I am special interest in the ClarityCap DTAC.

The company makes a quality product.

I am not fond of the North American importer/distributor, fwiw.

Imho, I'd be somewhat surprised if they made a significant difference over a high quality polypropylene unless you have rather high quality, low distortion tweeters and a signal chain that backs it up in style...

Put it another way, if I had the $$ to spend, I'd spend it on the raw driver first, then the caps/coils, not the other way around.

I've used Clarity caps (badged as Soniqs) and have nothing negative to say about them. A definite improvement in smoothness ove the stock parts in my Tannoy 611 but I cannot tell any difference in sound between Claritycaps and Sonicaps in my speakers.

Best regards,
Martin.
