I want to upgrade the caps in my NAD 2240PE amp. It has Big caps, they are even Blue, but I'm not sure if they are Badass.

I came across some Yellow Bitchin' caps, and some Black Boo-Yaa caps, but I really want the Baby Blue Big Badass ones.

Cheers,
Rooster

    I can't believe you picked the baby blue big badass caps over the yellow bitchin caps. You, sir, obviously have a hearing or mental disorder!

    Has there been any bench testing to validate the claims of the Big Blue Badass caps? I personally prefer the Black Boo-Yaa's.

    Great, 1 vote for the Yellow Bitchin' caps, and 1 vote for Black Boo-Yaa's. Maybe I'll just write 'badass' with a magic marker on the caps I have now.

    Troy, I plan to go lift some weights this afternoon, I'll let you know how the bench test goes. Although I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to do, just set them on the bench, see which one rolls off first?

    That's fine as long as you use a black sharpie. Any other color disrupts the capacitive flux field in an asynchronous manner, thereby interfering with the cumulative aperiodic noncapacitive dispersion. Purple and Brown sharpies have a greater effect than black. Many people report hearing an increased "appleness" on certain cymbal strikes using purple, and brown appears to cause tweeters to exhibit a decidedly noncorrosive yet altogether repugnant smell.

    You are all wrong. A CAP is a CAP is a CAP. All the CAPS of same size sound the same. It doesnt matter they are badass or yellow bitchin.
    Looks like you guys havent done any double blind testing on this.
