Conventional capacitors, being made of large, coiled, thin strips of aluminium, are prone to induce eddy currents across their conducting surface. These currents prevent the capacitor from doing its job optimally, thus degrading subjective sound quality.
By introducing a series of tiny slits in the foil conductors these eddy currents are dramatically reduced, so improving the subjective performance of these DNM-designed capacitors (both the Slit foil and T-Network ranges).
T-Network
Instead of the simple positive and negative terminals found on the majority of capacitors, the
T-Network has inputs and outputs for both terminals. These extra terminals are connected at the centre
and ends of each capacitor plate, guiding the current along a controlled path. The T-Network design reduces the effect of unwanted resistance and inductance.
