Hi All,
(i) Does anyone here have any thoughts/experiences that they'd like to share on how much DC voltage ( & why ) to apply to a pair of "Charge-Coupled ™" capacitors ?
(ii) I realize that JBL settled on @ 9 volts after first trying 18 volts ( or so it seems from the M9500 network schematic ) .
(iii) I "hear" a certain amount of "UHF damping" when using DC biased caps. I wonder if this is resulting from the ratio of "occupying charge ( the battery ) to the actual voltage rating for the cap in use. IE ; JBL typically uses 100 V caps , so the battery charge is "occupying" 9% ( 9 volts/100volts ) of the caps voltage capacity.
(iv) FWIW; in the future I'll be trying some lower bias voltages on my " polystyrene bypass caps" / which typically have voltage ratings of around 63 Volts.
( I'm offline for the day )
