I recently bought an original Squeezebox on ebay. When I opened it up, I noticed that the output capacitors were large value (110 uf) electrolytics, and were unbypassed. I bypassed these capacitors with .1 uf metal films bought at Radio Shack (If you have not used these caps, they sound quite good-much like Auracaps-and there are also 1 uf and .01 uf ones there).
As expected, it made a quite noticeable improvement in audio quality, particularly in the high end. Here are the capacitors I used: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102589 All you do is put them across the capacitors alrerady there. I normally look at the capacitor printed side upwards, and call the lead on the left the + one. That way I always connect both film caps up exactly the same. -- dpuopolo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dpuopolo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21754 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58554 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
