[Spridgets] Condensers

[David Groundwater]

justradios? I've bought a bunch of stuff for a pair of old Ampex tube amps
from them. Given the poor quality electrons I get from Commonwealth Edison, I
decided I didn't need fancy tube amp capacitors.

Here's a dissected condensor/capacitor.

Has anybody used an audio type capacitor to replace the auto type condensor?
