Title: using tricon caps for CCE mod ?
Post by nico on 08/09/12 at 20:54:03

Can anyone tell me if the green Tricon 0,1Uf input-caps can be used for the CCE mod?
Thanks
Nico

If I'm not mistaken, the CCE mod wants to use a .01uf (not 0.1mf).

Since the "Q" of that cap is so much lower, I'm not dead sure of how it would work.

OTOH....it wouldn't hurt anything to try it and see.

Cheers,
Karl

0.1uf is the correct value.

Thank you both, so the capacitance of the Tricons is correct; I guess their voltage is rated high enough for use as CCE mod.
Now they can stay in the amp and be put to use. ;)
