AMTRANS 5K1 Ohm 2W AMRT "Non-Magnetic" (Carbon Film) Series Resistor
These are 5% tolerance, moisture resistant 2-Watt parts, which are both non-magnetic & self-dampening (a quirk of their design - which make them both low distortion, and more tonally neutral, that carbon composition resistors). Manufactured in Japan by AMTRANS, this series is an “upmarket audio” version of their well-known AMRS parts. pcX has built a stong hobbyist following for their ½, ½ and 1 watt cousins; and more audio OEM manufacturers, have begun using them too. It was only natural, that once the 2W parts were launched, we’d add them to our menu of resistor offerings. The AMRT’s offer a vibrant, highly resolving sound, with considerable bottom end weight and authourity. Their combination of performance and price, make them a undoubted value, for the DIY AUDIO community.
