Audio Note CAP-100-R-220U-160V Kaisei Electrolytic Capacitor

The Audio Note CAP-100-R-220U-160V is part of the Kaisei series, which represents a leap forward in electrolytic capacitor design for the most discerning audio components. The collaboration with Rubycon, the company behind the legendary Black Gate capacitors, ensures that each Kaisei unit benefits from advanced materials and construction techniques, including high-quality electrolyte and specially developed foil. This results in a capacitor that provides clarity, depth, and low distortion in audio signal paths, making it ideal for audiophile-grade builds and upgrades.

With a robust 220 µF capacitance and a voltage rating of 160 V, the CAP-100-R-220U-160V is designed to meet the demands of high voltage crossover components and power supply circuits. Its 20% tolerance allows for flexibility in design, while its snap-in format (10 mm pitch, fitting 1.5 mm diameter holes) ensures easy integration into existing PCBs and chassis. The Kaisei’s meticulous internal construction addresses the needs of both primary power filtering and signal decoupling in high-end audio equipment.

This capacitor is particularly well-suited for use in amplifiers and high-fidelity speakers, where the quality of passive components directly impacts the sonic performance. Whether used in the power supply stage or as part of a signal path upgrade, the Kaisei delivers increased definition, reduced noise, and improved tonal balance. Its characteristics make it a popular choice among DIY builders and professional technicians aiming to achieve the very best from their audio gear.

Thanks to its uncompromising approach to materials and engineering, the Audio Note CAP-100-R-220U-160V Kaisei Electrolytic Capacitor is a reliable solution for restoring, upgrading, or designing new high-end audio equipment. It is compatible with a wide array of audio projects, from DIY kits to professional-grade component upgrades, providing a sonic signature that reflects Audio Note’s pursuit of musicality and authenticity.
