Sonicaps with hand written “34” ???
That a factory drymarker?

Sonicaps with hand written “34” ???
That a factory drymarker?
The apparent explanation is that someone at SonicCraft checks all the 33uF Sonic Caps and finds the ones that spec out within some tolerance of 34uF. Then they label them by hand, and sell them for about 100.00 bucks apiece.Post edited by Astrl55 on -
That's true^^^^
-
As tight as the tolerances are at SonicCraft The guy deserves 100 bucks to sit and try and find them.
-
Since their 33uF, 34uF, and 35uF are so close to each other, they probably discover some during precision matching services and relabel any that are closer to a nearby value, even though they are still within tolerance.George / NJ

Yes, pretty much. I plan to take a look, but they haven’t respond yet.

Of course, that is the Monitor 11 which is like a larger Monitor 10. Doesn't have the crossover that sends different signals to each of the MWs afaik, unlike the earlier Model 11 aka RTA11.George / NJ

I was down in Vero Beach, FL this weekend visiting mom and dad. I went to Wax records there in town and he had a set of RTA 12's for sale. $375 IIRC. Don't see any of their equipment on FB page. Mainly a record store but have some electronics. A set of Klipsch KG4's I think they were too. Thought I'd share for anyone in FL. I'll be back there next month maybe. https://www.facebook.com/WaxrecordsincHT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.
