Takman Resistors
are the resistors that we’ve been waiting for — nonmagnetic, music friendly materials, reasonable price. Metal Film is more precise and sounds brighter while carbon film is warmer and more relaxed.
Kiwame Carbon Film Resistors
Kiwame are an excellent match for high-end audio setups. Kiwame resistors are from Japan and characterized by lower noise than metal film resistors and a more natural sound. There is a growing enthusiasm for these carbon film resistors because they recapture the vintage tube sound without the drift of carbon comps. They are also very compact (2w: 4x12mm, 5w: 9x24mm) given their wattage rating. The resistance material is a carbon film coated with silicon. 750 volts DC max.
