Mundorf silver /oil /gold vs Duelund CAST

After hours of testing Mundorf's S/O/G Caps mated with Scanspeaks new revalator dome we were not pleased with the sound of the Mundorf/scanspeak combo the results were disappointing: poor dynamics and contrived not natural sound with a loss of rated SPL.

However; coupled with the Duelund CAST capacitor the new tweeter actually and finally came to life. It is smooth, real, and dynamic with an open natural sound!

Perhaps the Mundorf is better with many more hours on her??

Go Duelund!

Quad-Man,

I have a few pairs of custom speakers with all Scan Speak drivers. I use all Cast Duelund with custom silver ribbon wire. So I am familiar with what you are working with.

If I was designing a speaker and the top end was rolled off then the Mundorf would be a cheap fix.

Using the Mundorf with a speaker that has tonal balance you will get more energy on top and shift the balance.

Duelund Cast works great with Scan Speak. As I mentioned in a previous thread I call them the Denmark Connection.

Stick with the Duelund and you will find you will have to spend less upstream.
