Re: That's good news!

Im really in love with carbon comp resistors..Only one was out of tolerance and I mean when my 100k resistors were reading 97K I was happy as can be.The CC seem to have a very wide bandwith and are very open..The voltages are all on the money as well as the resistance checks..I just couldnt bring myself to part with the AB resistors it was born with being they sound OHH soo good..One of my citation ones I built with vishays MF and some WW and the other one I did with carbon film..They both are identical mods other than the resistors and the CF one sounds much more open,real and dynamic.I regret not leaving my other citation 2 with CC or rikens or CF but maybe in the future..I know the MF are supposedly quieter,but I havent found this to be the case at all.I usually just double the wattage when I find a bad cc resistor.
