And to reflect.. like where it says 510pf, that is measured.. the amp used a 500pf but measured 510pf, which if you measure alot of those,a 470pf comes closer to 500pf when measured. 500pf are usually up to 520pf.
Just saying most of the pf mica measure above what the value states,so its good to measure those.
the 9.2k resistors are 9.1k that measured 9.2k So..alot of things are much like the Franny and others. Just small differences.
I don't know if many things were actually measuered and posted.
I have built an amp that uses these..although in the film and disc cap i used .001s.. which make a .002 in that section. I also blended the caps using the PVC and CDE.. sounded really good.

My bad - I missed them when I looked.

My Ceriatone actually did have a 510pf cap which I believe is a regular value in Europe/Chinia.
