Types of Caps used

Posted by: peperoni on 07 August 2002

Hi

Please excuse me if this has been asked before. What type of caps do naim use in their equipment I thought it was BHC but I popped the sleeve off of my Hi Cap to discovery some very shiny red caps with I think JTS on them, is this normal or have I been invaded by the furriners !!

I have seen BHC caps in the XPS I think.

Hicaps and 250s have SLCE (made in france).

Older gear might have other makes in.

Naim often use BHC Aerovox, but the Hicaps usually use SLCE, french-made cap's. They should be 15,000u.
