tweeter & midrange Sonicap upgrade (+$295.00 USD)
*Add to your shopping cart on check out*
 Upgrade your HT3/HT3O/HT8/HT8O tweeter midrange capacitors from Solen or Erse capacitors to the Sonicap capacitors plus Mills resistors.The Sonicap will yield or exceed the performance found in the most prestigious of boutique caps, yet with a price conducive to that of "entry level".While capacitors suffer from more noise (high distortion) than most audio components, the Sonicap exhibits very low noise and parasitics.  The presentation is rich in harmonics, warm, without the slightest loss of detail retrieval!  As a matter of fact, the micro-dynamics of the Sonicap is unmatched by anything close to its price range.Many of the Sonicap capacitors are needed in some speakers due to large capacitor values used in some models.
