"Silver Solder Connections"... It must be my "Granite (Hard) brain that doesn't allow me to understand how a SOUND mechanical joint can/would be influenced by the top gas/air barrier (solder). To me, the "Sound Mechanical Joint" IS the connection (the cake), the solder is the "Frosting" on the cake. A helical twisted connection (with wire nuts...ala Henry Kloss) beats a poor weld/solder job, because the solder is the connection, rather than the "Sound Mechanical Joint". I've read about cascading caps and it is interesting but all those caps, instead of one or two for the needed value, might just cause its own problems; a lack of cohesion and focus.... Is it Live, or is it Memorex? At any rate, Nice Work guys! Any Unchallenged man remains a King of nothing. Trying/Working reveals who we really are....
