Caiman passive output mod revealed

Thanks for that Ali,
the impedance on my Cambridge is 47k, how would that go with a clarity cap?

Anything between 1uf and 4.7uf IMO.

You used to be able to get free samples of Claritycaps. I got some 1uf.

These are good caps IMO.Amazing value for money.

Blimey they were about a £quid each when I got mine

Credit crunch!

[Gazjam]

Sounds good guys..but would they fit in the Bdac case?

Ali, you had something like this in your 7510, and I remember the case was open!

[Ali Tait]

Nah that was 47uF Obbligatos,much bigger.The ESA's are 20mm diameter,so I think they'd be fine.

[Gazjam]

I take it the Clarity's aren't bipolar...?
so it would just be a case of noting which one was positive and negative and slot each wire into the appropriate hole in the opamp board socket on the PCB as per the passive out mod?

ta.

thinking of pulling the trigger on this one tonight (yes im bored)

[Ali Tait]

Doesn't matter which way round you put them,but otherwise yes.

[Ali Tait]

Though thinking about it,they may not fit there,so may need some wire soldering on so the caps can be fitted in at the side,as per the photo I posted of mine with mundorfs in.
