Made to take the place of the legendary Riken Ohm Carbon Film resistors, these are simply the best sounding resistors you can put in the MKIII. These are non-magnetic, encapsulated in a black anodized aluminium case, potted in a highly thermally conductive resin, brass end caps, and have gold-plated oxygen-free copper leads.
NOTE: subject to availability, may require additional lead time to acquire these components.
