My post was tongue-in-cheek, Neal. That should've been obvious. However, in terms of capacitors, see Grant's link to the white paper.

Marco.

Strange I had to go elsewhere to find this research: http://www.humblehomemadehifi.com/do...cal_Report.pdf

It refers to internal vibration caused by a signal passing though the capacitor NOT external influences but this is just a diversion, it's not a resistor.

Edit: Ah Grant beat me to it.

1 kilobyte = 1000 byte

1 kibibyte = 1024 byte

Lol - I know! My point was that, in audio, one should always look beyond the immediately obvious, and apply lateral thinking, which is precisely what Clarity Cap did with capacitors... Perhaps if someone applied that thinking to resistors, they'd also discover something useful that wasn't immediately obvious? ;)

Remind you of anyone? ;)

I had already googled it. But in my case I follow the Hindu/Buddhist view that the mind is an aspect of Maya, and as such needs to be ignored if one is to achieve enlightenment. It is simply the result of the soul being housed in a body and it's interaction with the world causes this ephemeral and annoying distraction. Of course, as we all interact individually each mind takes on a different personality, and this is what we mistakenly believe to be the real us.
OK? Any questions? :lol:

Blimey, I thought everyone had read that. I would have mentioned it myself if I'd realised.

Yes. What the hell are you on about? :scratch:

:D

(no, I don't want to be enlightened further)

What do you mean, further? ;)

Please convey my thanks to Korton;)

The ClarityCap research makes it quite clear that they found no evidence that capacitors are affected by external vibration. What they did find was that capacitors resonated quite clearly when fed a signal and this potentially modulated their own output - so they weren't prone to external vibration but produced their own.

Ah, I see now that this has already been pointed out.
