troppo Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Putting the new Caps into my 2ax's and I'm wondering how much heat they might generate and what kind of glue can be trusted to keep them in place for the next 20 years.Troppo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cable ties with mounting blocks are good. If you want to use glue, use "Goop" (any kind).Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlspeak Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 To answer the first part of your question, caps don't normally generate heat. Resistors, coils and speakers do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
