In Reply to: My Vishays were all shunts to ground. Were yours actually carrying the signal? posted by hukkfinn on February 8, 2010 at 10:54:37:
My Vishays were in the signal path, but in a way they were also ground shunts. They went from the hot to the ground of my step-up transformers. One thought is that pre-break-in components tend to be more agressive than after break-in, but the overall character usually doesn't change enormously (in my experience). I have used high purity copper and found it a bit forward compared to Cardas, but not at all shouty. Some break-in may help to tame them somewhat. Even though the resistors aren't in the signal path, they could alter the sound. If you could substitute something else, maybe even cheap stuff from Radio Shack, you could see if they have much of an impact on the sound.
