organic electrolytics in audio equipment?

They are obsolete in a couple years and in the scrape pile before they are 5 years old in most cases. Nonsense. My home PC, a Core 2 Duo running at 2.66 GHz, is 2.5 years old now, and hardly "obsolete". In fact, there's nothing out there today that is significantly faster. (Quad cores only help in certain applications.) My daughter is also quite satisfied with the performance of her (5 year old) Pentium 4 (Northwood) 3.0 GHz. Neither of these machines was fastest available when I built them, either. Very wise. NEVER buy the fastest. They're the fastest for about 3 months max. Besides, the application can make far more difference. Graham |
