I use the 8G16 0.1% version and I can't see any real benefit of paying the much higher prices for the GG102s &/or 0.025%, etc Do the GG102 versions sound any better for audio purposes?
Mind you, I don't have any circuit requirement for better than 0.1% accuracy and the noise and stability appears to be the same for the different versions .... am I missing something obvious?
Also, what is the difference in sound between the Manganin resistors and the Zerenin resistors? It's pretty easy to hear the difference between the Manganin and the Isotan/Constantan

I would love to know the answer to jameshillj's question so I added a pair of 1.5k 0.1% version of each of the 3 resistor lines to my order. These can be a test set to be sent around for folks to compare, and then we can know (at least as much as ears will tell us).
We have much more than the minimum order and can probably split it into 2. If you want to wait until the "what's the difference" question has more answers, please let me know.

Perhaps the more compact size might reduce the 'noise' or something - I can't see any specs about that - otherwise the conductor properties seem to be the same.
It's interesting Paddy that Element14 here in Oz (Farnell Australia) is listing some 8G16D resistors (about 20 values) for just under A$10 - listed under the Rhopoint name - a few 5G10D too but those are A$12.50. These are the 'basic' 0.1% version.
I'm amazed that you could get such a low volume, special tolerance purchase today from any manufacturer - just saying ...
I occasionally see mention about another similar material called Zerenin, or Zeranin - it's similar 85% copper, about 7% Mn and the last bit is Sn - apparently it has a different temperature behavior but from the little I've seen written, it also has a different 'sound' characteristic (probably quite small), but it'd interesting to see a sample of resistance wire to try it out.

I too was surprised at the low minimum from the manufacturer, but then again resistors aren't their main business: Prime Technology . It could be that the precision resistors are needed for their other lines and retail is a bonus?
They also do short-run assembly, and given their other markets I imagine they're pretty good at that!

Hi
....that should be 2 X 10k 0,1% 8G16 , not 1x
and therefore 2x 7.16 $ = 14.32 $

I have put my AYA project on hold my quite some time.
This needs
2 x 1.5K
2 x 1K
2 x 150
I see that you don't list the last (150) value while Rhopoint suppose to carry them.

The manufacturer doesn't list 150R as a standard in any of the three lines, so not in the table above. That doesn't mean Rhopoint wouldn't stock them, just that we can't get them off the shelf in this GB, sorry.
Probably worth ordering through Rhopoint even if we did order custom: GG102 Squaristor in ranges 10R-249.9R would cost $26.91 each in quantity < 10. Happy to sign you up for the standard pieces in the GB if you like, just PM.
