Hello,
Recently acquired this gorgeous Threshold SL10 but it sounds flat and clinical in comparison to my Pass korg B1. Like very flat.
So I had a peak and someone has been here before me. No surprise on an amp this old. Caps need to get replaced so they were. High quality black gate and Panasonic caps used by the looks of it.
But I noticed one cap in an unusual orientation and dining a simple image comparison shows maybe just maybe one of these 47uf 50V caps is backwards.
Am I loosing my mind?
Context:
Both are driving Hypex ncore Nc400s with Klipsch Forte 3 at the helm.
Turntable is micro seiki DD40 with nagaoka MP-150.
I really thought the Threshold SL10 was going to hand it to the Pass Korg B1 but maybe I’m just super wrong.
Would love your thoughts.
Thanks and stay safe.
Jules

According to this photo, all should be the same, as expected.
Discard at least that one.
