Guys,
Somewhere in this (very long!) thread I recall reading a preference given to replacing the Craddock at R3 with Isabellenhütte PBH Series instead - can't find that reference now as can't remember what post I saw that on!
Is that a definite recommendation, or did I simply dream it?! Would that be a worthwhile consideration in your (more experienced) opinions?
Thx

No You did not dream..
I hope it can be permitted, I had just stolen this zoom-in from the photo of Ripster's post (#4737 just after Your message..), a zoom-in into his installation > >
now that is an IsabellenHuette that you can observe there.. Part of the latest GB BOM..
In fact, I think some more people might assemble / swap in the part properly in these days, so hopefully more opinions coming.
Ciao, George

Should C13 Auricap XO black markings outer foil be facing input connector side?
So answer is YES
Obviously they're supposed to be soldered and mounted flush to the PCB, mine are 'flying' on fastons to allow rapid swapping...

So is it considered a beneficial upgrade?
V1.8 boards have been made to allow mounting them...Does it tell you something?
Prefer the Mundorfs if budget allows it.Duly noted! I'll probably plan to obtain a couple in that case .....
You have to connect dac.. Leaving input open, =buzzing..
Edit: I mean dac or preamp.. The input, when left open, is having a 100kohm impedance - far too high, picks up all things.
Though.. Did You measure the voltage on output terminals, DC, 200mV resolution, with input shortened?
Just a check, if it is OK

Thank you Joseph I connected everything to amplifier and now it is playing nicely without any buzzing
But hopefully with a a warm fuzzy feeling
