Happy to take a back seat on this one.Originally Posted by StanleyB
The passive mod is sufficient for those who are happy with the 1Vrms or so unbuffered output and don't need the headphone out. So you can quite happily continue with your passive mod. I only have enough Rubycon caps to make 200 Gators anyhow. So anyone who is happy with their passive mod should allow those who need the Gator to have a first pick of the cherries.
Film Caps rock!
Letting go and relaxing

Thanks Stan - Been curious about this thread for weeks now wondering what to go for. I might go for one of the expensive caps later (Clarity / Auricaps) but in the meantime found this one by the same seller. As it's from the same company that's in my Heybrook crossovers I thought it worth a punt.

Got some caps for the passive mod yesterday at the Tonbridge Audiojumble.
Bit of a squeeze at nearly 4" and 1 3/4"!
Sound quite special though.

Gazjam. You could well be right. These caps are very very good.
