    Harmonic Percolator (with some mods)

    I wanted to add your notes on bias on Q2 (and also maybe bias Q1) to the aion fx pcb. Am I right in thinking that's R1 and R3 here?

    Organic Aluminum Polymers for Electrolytic - do they have a place?

    Awesome, I think that makes sense. I think from a signal perspective I'm totally understanding leakage there I'm curious mostly when caps are applied to supply or bias rails. Using the klon as an example and pulling out the power section: I'm getting why every cap here leakage isn't an issue...

    Organic Aluminum Polymers for Electrolytic - do they have a place?

    Right sorry, I mean it in both ways. I'm trying to figure out where the high current leakage in reference to matters to prevent literal physical leakage. Pure curiosity and minmaxxing the build if the so called "strictly" better quality is true. Also I'm aware this could be potentially moot...

    Organic Aluminum Polymers for Electrolytic - do they have a place?

    Man i wrote this organically. how cooked am I / are we if this sounds like ai lol. Do you want a photo for proof of my newly organized box of aluminum org poly caps I got off mouser for a total a $3 right, I know I don't necessarily need them, but I have them now and I'm curious. if you're...

    Organic Aluminum Polymers for Electrolytic - do they have a place?

    I should say - I am like half in half out in terms of just being a pedal/amp builder and learning the engineering behind them. So I don't fully understand the use cases for where leakage does and doesn't matter. I'm vaguely understanding that: - for power smoothing, these are way better than...

    Organic Aluminum Polymers for Electrolytic - do they have a place?

    I'm posting this because I've not found any sources or discussions actually on this topic. If you shop at general electronic supplies you'll come across Aluminum Organic Polymer capacitors. They're slightly more expensive than electrolytics, but not meaningfully so. In the general sense...
