Angela/SCR Tin Foil Signal Capacitor, .82uF/630VDC

Angela/SCR Tin Foil Signal Capacitor, .82uF/630VDC

.82uF/630VDC ,1.5 inches x 3/4 inches.

SIZE = LENGTH X DIAMETER. LEADS = 1 &3/8 inches.

Made for us by SCR (Societie Des Condensatueurs Record) of France. These capacitors feature special high tension, non inductive windings, comprising two tin foil bands separated by two polypropylene films. The manufacturer claims that they are insensitive to humidity. The form of these tin 'armament' capacitors is cylindrical with axial tinned oxygen free copper leads. These caps are HEAVY in the hand! They scream, "QUALITY!" They bear some resemblance to the vintage signal caps found in premium '50s tube gear. The outer jacket is black with the ANGELA logo (see above) printed in white. The ends are neatly sealed in jet black epoxy. We think these caps offer a much neater appearance in your chassis than Orange Drops, Xicon, Panasonic, etc. Operating temperature range is -25 degrees C to +85 degrees C. Capacitance tolerance is 3% but typically measures less. Consider these fine sounding NEW Angela/SCR tin signal capacitors as a sonic upgrade over Orange Drops and other plastic caps found in tube hi-fi and guitar amps. To my ear, only paper in oil capacitors (especially the copper foil types...) offer richer sonics. Could it be that tin really is a better plate material for audio capacitors than the commonly used aluminum? You really should give these a spin in your next project.
