New member from France.

[Docjowe]

Hi to all!
I’m Docjowe, living in Paris, France. I’m a retired boomer and still loving good music, and fine equipment.
I own a MV50 which is sounding fine. Other equipment from Threshold, Krell, ARC and Diy preamplifier +RIAA stage.
Speakers are diy of my own conception, 4 speakers 3 ways tall and heavy columns .

I’m looking for information about the value of the four electrolytic caps in the power supply, and eventually a source for supplying them.
I was told about film capacitors as replacements. Any thoughts about that point?

Thanks for accepting me as member.

Hi Docjowe,
Great to have you here with us on CJO! I've been to Paris numerous times and it's one of my favorite places in the world to visit. Just really beautiful.

We have a schematics section here on CJO where you may be able to find more info on individual components. Can you tell us a little more about the DIY speakers? I'm always interested in hearing about what people have come up with on their own.

Hola and welcome Docjowe,

As I recall, the capacitors at the MV-50 are made at your Country. Many of them are made in France. Superb quality products!. If you decided to change them, remember 1) Same capacitance 2) Same voltage rating or higher.

By the way, I never had an issue with a capacitor into the MV-50. They had measured with the value stated printed at the caps. Can you explain to us a little more about your seeking into its quality sound? Perhaps tube rolling?

Welcome again and have a great

Happy listening!
