pcX is very proud to now be stocking both series of the V-Cap line of signal capacitors, probably the hottest cap line in today's DIY marketplace. Many feel it's the finest sounding line-up of caps, at any price !
pcX is the only other retailer (besides V-Cap themselves) offering these caps for DIY retail sales, in North America.
NOTE: V-Cap does not qualify for any additional "overall order" discounts - pcX must follow their factory authorized discount table for quantity purchases per value.
The V-Cap TFTF Teflon® film and tin foil audiophile capacitors and OIMP series (Oil Impregnated Metallized Polypropylene) film capacitors are the result of an extensive research and development project by a team of world-renowned experts in electrical engineering, chemistry, materials science, and some of the top minds (and "ears") in the audio industry. With the TFTF it is now it is possible to get the smooth, liquid, and "musical" presentation of an oil capacitor, but with even better refinement, transparency and inner detail. Hear and feel true low frequency extension without any loss of control. Immerse yourself in a holographic soundstage emanating from a velvety black background, while enjoying the midrange liquidity and bloom coveted by oil capacitor aficionados. The V-Cap TFTF's reproduction of a musical instrument's precise timbre must be heard to be believed. And selecting the best film was just one of many stages in the design and refinement process that led to the V-Cap OIMP series. Transferring the unique Variable Stage Quadrant Dielectric™ winding technology to the OIMP series was a stunning development on it's own, but even further progress was made by perfecting the actual oil impregnation process. This ensures the highest level of performance, reliability, and consistency from capacitor to capacitor. V-Caps are available in values of .01, .022, .033, .047, .068, .1, .22, .33, .47, .68, 1.0 and 2.0 and 3.3 uF with voltage ratings up to 600VDC and a tolerance of +/- 5% (3.3 uF is rated to 250VDC). Two and a half and one percent tolerance may be available at additional cost. Each and every capacitor is inspected and tested at TWICE the maximum rated voltage PLUS 10% before it leaves the factory. This ensures long life, reliability, and the ultimate in performance.

Founded in 2001, Capativa Technology Inc. (the parent company of the Legenburg Team) simply wanted a better quality sounding cable. After long research, they created a cable that uses rectangular conductor technology, for which they received a US patent. This new technology proved to be the best solution for providing no skin effect because of its shape and configuration. Based on this theory, it allowed the frequencies to travel more evenly, thus minimizing skin effect that can disburse the sound quality. With this new invention, they added the unique Mono-Crystal-OCC conductor materials (Mono-Crystal Rectangular Pure Copper) to improve the results, now known as Legenburg MCRPC. As well, all Legenburg wire is jacketed with a teflon dielectric material. The Legenburg revolution has begun ! pcX is offering two colours (Red and Blue) of three awg's to start:

Rather than the usual RF shielding metal box, which doesn't exactly spell resonance free (try and tap on it), they used a special RF absorbing foam, as used in RF measurement laboratories. This cell foam also has a dampening effect on any mechanical vibration, that might reach the PCB itself.

PEARL Tube Coolers
From Bill Perkins of Perkins Electro-Acoustic Research Laboratory! pcX now has back in stock, the "full range" of "new" updated PEARL TUBE COOLERS - without a doubt, one of the most useful accessories in tube audio. Use of these devices result in reduced tube microphony for noticeably improved sonics; and longer tube life (conservatively triple) due to the cooler "heatsinking' the heat away from the glass enveloped, via the thermally conductive copper-finned cooler material. NOTE: PEARL has converted (since October 2005) cooler manufacturing over to a new fin design, which provides over 60% more contact area with the tube's glass bulb/envelope. As a result, the previously supplied carbon fibre sleeve is no longer required for the cooler to work, as intended. WHICH

EICHMANN We have just been informed that Eichmann prices are going up, across the board, beginning November 1st, 2008. HAMMOND Prices for all Hammond transformers went up, as of the release of their new price book, October 27th. The average increase is about 5%. SOLEN On Nov 1st, pcX was provided a new price schedule...we will be adjusting our pcX Selling Prices on SOLEN throughout the month of November. FURUTECH As a result of currency exchange issues with the Japanese YEN, pcX has received a new price schedule effective November 21st...expect pcX Selling Prices to be adjusted accordingly. DUELUND pcX will finally have the "very popular" 0.5 Silver/Silk/Oil hook-up wire back in stock by the end of September (this is the very best sounding hook-up wire we sell).
