What does this describe?

It "sets the reference for accuracy, neutrality, low
distortion, and musicality"

and

it has "exceptional inter-transient silence, high mechanical
stability and low leakage."

The last few words may give it away - yes it is a
(metallised
polypropylene) capacitor!! What is more they range from 0.022uF (or
22nF to you and me) at GBP4 to 10uF at GBP21 each.

Same outfit sells a 'contact suppressor and VDR" for the
princely sum of GBP5.90 where the actual components from RS or
Farnell, even in one offs, will cost less than 50p!!

I will not publish the company name, but Yell finds the them
in
Kendal under hi-fi........



rip off russ ?


You might think that but I couldn't possibly
comment................

How do you have your news reader set up? It is impossible to tell
which bits are yours, and which are the stuff you are replying
to.

Actually when the mail arrived it had thick black lines down the
side.
I don't know what put them there and I could neither get rid of
them
nor stop them extending as I typed - so I left them as they were.

Hence why the layout looks odd.

OH my! That is now a royal mess. What you actually need to do is
ditch
Outlook Express which is responsible for all of this, and find
another
news reader - there's plenty out three.

I have Thunderbird which is, I suppose, as good as any, but changing
now would probably cause great confusion to She What Thinks She Should
Be Obeyed!

Having said that, I think this is only the second or third time it has
happened in about six years, and yours is the first 'complaint' per
se, so maybe I'll just stay as I am.

You only really see it once a thread is established and a few posts
deep. There is an add-on you can get for OE that corrects the problems
it causes called Quotefix, you just run it and forget it, and all this
stuff is gone. I think by now most OE users have this.
