:) It's 47uF I have coming! The Pre 2 has a 100k pot though,so I should get away with 1uF also.I'll get some 1 uF's too..

Here's how the 1uFs fit, no problem closing the lid. Sorry to say but smaller caps almost invariably sound better. Bass is great via my 18 inch dipole bass drivers.....nothing's missing!Quote:

I'll see how are against a smaller value.
Nice installation, Clive. I have a pair of Claritycap ESA arriving soon to try, should be a similar fit to your Obbligatos.
You really should do something about those regulators and tantalum caps, though
:)
Clarity Cap MR's look nice,not tried them before.A pair is half the price of the dac though!
Indeed, I don't need to pay that much for what is essentially a secondary source for me.
Oh dear, Hannah just got home and said "what have you done to the hifi, it sounds boring"
I have some Clarity SA waiting to go into a phono stage, they are about half the diameter of the Obbligatos.Quote:

Will the cap upgrades reduce harshness? I must add, the DAC is not especially harsh, indeed it's harsh of me to compare it to a £5k vinyl front end.
You still playing the Ting Tings ?Quote:
