Input /output caps


Have seen for some time now that some manufactures use "sheilding" caps on the unused input/output jacks in an effort to reduce emi/rf and enhance sonic benefits. My question is has anyone one been using them and if so WAS there a preceviable sonic difference with them in use (as I realize that it could be subtle)? Becuse Cardas caps aren't that expensive and could be an inexpensive tweak for me to try then. Thanks for the input.

Nsgarch is correct. I used to use the Isoclean shorting plugs on the inputs to my preamp. They worked very well , although expensive. I recently switched to the High End Audio "shorties" plugs. There was a very noticeable difference for the better (a more analog or natural sound). They are also less expensive. High End offers a 14 day free in home audition. I was skeptical, since I really liked all of the Isoclean products I've ever tried, but these really work.
