In my system i have at the moment Satori Monitors that i passive filtered under 80Hz and cross to an M-Dipole active woofer. See the pictures at the Satori Monitor thread.
I use two 0.1uF MKP1837 in parallel and a 3.3nF LCR Polystyrol bypass.
Same result as p. I can not hear a difference if the caps are in the signal path or not.
The only difference is that i can play louder with less distortion because the Satori Mid-Woofers move less.

...Stock and flat Riaa values pretest. "Stock" is +0.2dB in the midbass and +0.4dB in the midhighs on average including any of my build tolerances. To go flat we need add 1nF more to the high and low cap values, also 820K across the 73.5K roughly. Just for reference to anybody it may prove handy.

All talk about Paradise has died down. Maybe people are waiting for the new pope to be elected😀
I just found the silence strange, considering that there should be 200+ people building now, from the first groupbuy🙂
@pdul: Well maybe everyone can, bot not all will.
And there might be a few who decided to wait unless there is sufficient clarity about all possible issues. There have been quite a lot of good hints here already on what to take care of...
And probably quite a few of the 200 overestimated their skills ?!

Sorry Mike the boards make easy to build and are really sturdy If you consider that my R2is been running for months all is needed is patience rather than skill.
I have not started R3 as first I wanted to see how Salas did as I said earlier in the tread.
Second for R3 I want to take my time and do the best I can after all you have been told over and over again how good the Paradise sound
So how you lot are doing with the transistors is the big question
I am alright but I have 2000 from Fairchild
400 From group buy
400 Diotec from Conrad's
I am impressed by the Diotec as the HFE match is very close IMO very good manufacturing at the wafer and doping stage still no match between the PNP and the NPN batches the PNP the mean of the PNP is around 380 while the mean of the NPN is about 440
I got one more batch of Diotec on order and I hope to get lucky with those .....
IN the mean time if you can help your selves and others

While waiting I do advice this Black Magic Woman by Santana - YouTube, at a minimum SPL of 110dB. The silence will disappear 🙂
If the previous is not enough, then try this Deep Purple - Machine Head 40th Anniversary Celebrations 2012 - YouTube, the minimum SPL is again 110dB but there is no maximum set 🙂 (You may want to keep a bit of distance) (The flow of time will no longer be detectable)
I am chasing my tail lookingfor the originals vinyls (sig sig left 4000 lp last time I moved)
Popol Vuh - Hüter der Schwelle - YouTube
In the mean time I have been listening to R2 straight on F5 Frank Zappa - Plastic People - YCDTOSA [Sampler] - YouTube

I worked with that dirty old man he was realy upset because we did not provide the after gig "entrateinment"
Well we where a bit worry about his ticker and any way he asked himself to the audience if there where any young girls that wanted to join him in the dressing room.
