Phoenix Gold Phorum

ok....spent the last hour going thru mouser and digikey parts lists and can not seen to find anything that is suitable for the replacement of the oem 6800uf 63v 35*35mm cap....what r you guys using?

I changed the caps at the MS2250 i bought from stryker a while ago! I can tell by Saturday as i have to take a look at the amp!

thanks Joerg...I just found 5 of the original nippon caps...nib...old stock on ebay for 13 bucks....identical in everyway to the os caps...he he I know that they are likely just as unstable as the ones that were in the amp and won't use em....but I bought em non the less

I don't know how to create a link but in the completed listings section it is this auction 200366127872...I'll check the caps when they come but I am nearly certain they will just sit here....or drop em in a dummy amp for display or something....

dp let me know....where are you now Joerg....the uk?

I´m still in the UK right now but will head home for a short 5 day vacation on friday . Can´t wait to see the sun again!

so what is life like in Austria Joerg...in what ways are the cultures different iyo? I will go see northern europe someday...

If u compare america with austria the first thing u notice will be that everything in the states is 5 times as big as it is in austria. People are much more calm in america and don´t have as stressed out lives as people in austria do. What i really think is better in austria is the food culture. Except for steaks! Other than that i would make a novell to write down, but as for me america is always worth a vacation so should austria be for americans.

BTW: Here´s the link

Good job Joerg....I can't figure that one out!!!! So what do you think of the caps? It really doesn't say how old they are....I guess we'll see. I thought about buying all of em they had but if they turned out to be worthless I'd be assed out 100 bucks....and I need that to get the signal caps!!!! Think I found a better then the dcx that I was going after to get the excelon out of the car and am going to go with a nice eclipse....believe it to have assyemetrical crossovers and alignment built in to it On a trade no less!!!! Those are always the best deals!!!!!

im rolling dice too, just picked up 15 of them....for 50.00 i will test them when they arrive and check'em out.. figured for 50.00 i'd roll the dice. like you said maybe for display amp piece or whatever... but i bet they'll be fine. i dunno what makes me think that, maybe just hope, but i think/feel they should be just fine.

keeping my fingers crossed on it too Matt...if they are good that is the cheapest cap job yet...yeee haaa
