OK, I will order 2 sets of 7 pcs x 0.1uF plus 6 pcs x 0.47uF tomorrow. We go for the cheaper price ones ya? Difference between them is cheaper ones able to withstand heat up to 85C whereas the more expensive ones up to 105C, latter caps more suited for tube amp environment.

I read that Audiophiler caps are actually made by Mundorf and are very good. If you could source for Auricap caps at not too expensive prices, them I'd prefer to go for them, else I'll consider buying your Audiophiler caps. Err, you sourced them from PRC? Any possibility they turned out to be imitations?

hmm is there 7 0.1uf? nvrmind just get it tongue.gif they are not too expensive.. the size is small right? else it wont fit the board tongue.gif 85c are good enough...all wima?

I got these from page 6 of the pdf file you made available at your first posting (TA2024 Eval Board Revision: B - Bill Of Materials). Down there quoted 7 pcs of 0.1uF caps at position marked C6,C7,C16,C20,C26,C29,C30 and 6 pcs of 0.47uF caps at position marked C12,C13,C22,C25,C27,C28.

I just checked Farnell site, price there for same items slightly cheaper. And these are are Polyester caps of MKS2 / MKS4 and not Polypropylene caps so you decide whether you still want them or not.

RS (0.1uF) - webpage

RS (0.47uF) - webpage

Farnell (0.47uF) - http://my.farnell.com/jsp/search/browse.js...requestid=68689

xtorm, polyesther and not polypropylene. I myself was also tricked by RS, check this out again: Wima 0.47uF 63V capacitors. The description of the first item is polypropylene nut when you select it, it's actually a polyesther. By the way, Wima got polypropylene caps at 0.47uF value ?

jazzy, all this thought and present action to replace the SMDs was after reading this site all on TA2024 amps. Check it out if you've yet to read it: mardis I thought it was interesting.

nvrmind just go ahead with poly..mks2 are better right? 0.47 are rm5 each at farnel,
duno abt the polypropylene (wow thts hard tongue.gif ) there is some other brand but voltage too high, hence big in size, and they are rm7 each i think

Problem is, I never heard of Epcos until now whereas all these while I have been reading about Wima caps. The same goes with Auricap yellow caps which is highly raved by many diyers and hifi nuts.

Will double confirm with you again tomorrow before I key in my order online, now too tired already after a long day at work. Need to double confirm with Jazzy who is also keen.

Do check out the mardis site I pointed out to Jazzy in my previous posting. All the recommended mods are stated in Input Mods and New Super T

Good night.

Y.C.,
Same here! I wasn't aware of EPCOS until pointed out by my son! tongue.gif As we all know, I am using two EPCOS caps on my T-Amp.. wink.gif
We all know about the evr popular WIMAs..

You go on ahead with the orders, I am with you guys. Bill me later, no problemo! wink.gif

I have read the details at the mardis's site earlier.. just that I do not remember the site. biggrin.gif
It was specific to the Sonic Impact's board, which is not much different basically from our/evaluation board layout..
Let's DO IT then! thumbup.gif
