Making the Duelund RS range more accessible to those who wish to hear the amazing benefits of Duelund capacitors, they have launched the RS Mylar range. We are first to carry stocks of these lower-cost axial capacitors. They are made of metalized mylar with paper and wax as their dielectrics....
Audio Note launched their 2W version of the Silver Tantalum Resistors nearly 4 years ago and they have proved to be incredibly popular. These gems feature their famous tantalum resistors constructed with pure silver end caps and lead-outs. We are proud to announce, having worked very closely with...
V-Cap has long been established as capacitor makers extraordinaire. In 2005 they launched the OIMP which was incredibly successful. Now they have improved on it with the ODAM series. ODAM stands for Oil Damped Advanced Metalised and employs improvements in manufacturing techniques and the composite...
One of the first port of calls for an upgrade of a pre-amplifier or integrated amplifier is the volume potentiometer. The standard fair for any reasonable manufactured piece of equipment is the Alps Blue beauty these come in at £13.00 a piece. The only other potentiometer worthy of using above the...
We have worked closely with Jantzen for many years now, sourcing their excellent range of capacitors, inductors, resistors, wires, connectors and loudspeaker associated accessories. After the recent success of their Alumen range of aluminium foil with polypropylene dielectric, they have been...
Over the years HiFi Collective has sold 100s of the old school Paxolin tag boards, built up of 2 rows of 18 tags. Ideal for the home constructor, particularly common in valve equipment, they facilitate hardwiring, and offer plenty of space for fitting the large audio-grade parts. You may be...
Audio Note has been working closely with Psvane in China for some time. In our opinion, they are the best valve manufacturer currently operating in China. Audio Note is renown for their research and development prowess and for this collaboration they have created something remarkable. Their first...
At Hi-Fi Collective we are very aware that certain lines do have a big following in the DIY community. Such as the Duleund CAST DC range, rated at 630V they are commonly used as de-coupler capacitors in valve equipment. There are numerous types, Copper, Tinned Copper and Silver to name a few. The...
Here we have a review and tweak of the new Bottlehead Crack OTL headphone amplifier kit. Bottlehead are a US based kit company who have supported the DIY community for some years with their amazing kits. A good customer of ours, Mr R.T. puts pen to paper in this review of the kit. He also gives...
We have worked closely with Jantzen for many years. Known for their superb inductors, resistors, and capacitors. So over the next few weeks, we will be adding the full range of their binding posts. They offer many affordable binding posts for chassis mount and speaker cabinet mount applications. We...
As stepped attenuators become increasingly popular the requirement of a varied range of resistor values becomes more essential to furbish the switches used to make stepped attenuators. Over the past few months, we have been repeatedly asked to make the 47 and 46 stepped attenuators featuring the...
So ETI Research has been incredibly busy over the past few months generating some fabulous new products. Following on the success of their Kryo silver plated range of connectors they have launched the Brio range, these are ultimately the same but they use Rhodium plating. The base material is...
Along with a recent 6 box delivery from JB Capacitors, replenishing our stocks of the JFX series of polypropylene capacitors, we received 3 new values. Namely the 220uF, 270uF and 330uF 250Vs. The JFX series offers affordable polypropylene capacitors mostly used in crossovers and more recently for...
Following the recent introduction of the Dalby Audio Design 320S copper/silver cable we have created the Glasshouse Interconnect Cable Kit No.12. This features the WBT-0114 RCA plugs and following the recommendation from Mr Dalby the cable is double wrapped in cotton sleeving. Their cables are not...
