Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Correction to above: I see now the Yec caps are NPM, not NPW; They are 4.7uF/50V, and small enough to be hard to read without desoldering them from a tight board. I could find info here on NPM, which I am thankful for.

Hello to all,

My user name is northpaw. I'm a retired academic whose hobby has been repairing and improving stereo equipment, although this has broadened at times to include other aging electronics, often due to BadCaps; no wonder I ended up here.

I discovered this forum today while searching for some info on Yec caps (NPW is the series, I think) I found in my Sonance 275 SE power amps. I found a little so far, and hope to find more. The NPW may be non-polar, as suggested by their name and also there...
