The 10uf CCCP caps came in, but I'm still waiting on the 4.0uf caps. They'll get here when they get here, I suppose...
In other seriously awesome news, I swapped out my Wester Electric WE16GA speaker cables for the Duelund DCA16GA. (I repositioned my amp to a side wall and needed longer cables) I'm pretty shocked how much better they are in just a few hours as I was expecting way more of the forward, metallic harshness in the beginning that generally happens with tinned copper Belden/WE cables before they mellow. Instead I got bonkers lushness right off the bat. Don't get me wrong, they still need to settle, but I'm amazed how painless the transition was. Burning in my Belden 9497 ICs was wayyyy rougher in the first few hours.
And the cables I ran with the O/93s? Yeah, those would have cost $1300 for the same length if I bought them finished from the factory. I spent 2/10ths that on the Duelands, hooked them up nude, and they're already better with the 846As. Go figure, eh?
