Re: TVC Question for Thorsten Loesch

Actually, what he recommends is 2.2 uF or above.

The value needs to be high enough not to roll off the bass for the various TVC step positions. See:

The application notes for the S&B transformers (which I bet Thorsten basically wrote) say the same:

What does Thorsten use himself currently for coupling cap values? Well, in his latest Abbingdon Music Research CD player, it looks like from the pictures on 6moons he his using a Mundorf ZN cap with a value of 2.2 uF.
