Right on. I still might try the Q's since I already have them. ST-70's seem like potato chips, your can't build just one. I was hoping for a comparative review from someone who has used the caps I mentioned.
Favorite Caps ST-70 Rebuild
For ST-70 owners who have the VTA board:
So many caps out there to choose from, what's your favorite brand (0.22uf & 0.1uf) and why?
Vitamin Q, K40, K71, K75....
I already purchased Vit Q's but am having second thoughts after listening to a different value (2.0uf) of them at the output of my preamp. Nothing like their reputation of being dull and dark. If anything they were too bright and lacked a bottom end. They sounded nasal and didn't change after breaking in. Hopkins PIO's were great from the get go and are getting better.
