Have you tried the Russian Teflon coupling caps? Cheap and very good -

just a
bit big. I just love them. Neutral and very detailed. Talking big, I use

motor
run polyprop caps (40uF) in the PSU with a choke CLC. Depends on the real
estate of the amp - not expensive and I'm surprised no commercial amps use
them. Much faster and more detailed. Andy




Andy, I've resisted Nick G's exhortations to mess with the KiT88 for a while
now! But, apart from a general cluelessness on my part, there really isn't
much room inside it and the use of a PCB don't help matters much. I have
another amp which desperately needs a service ('cattle trucked' atm!) and
I'm thinking to butcher it into summat different-looking in the new year and
hoping to learn a bit on the way......
