SCR of FRANCE

quality capacitors for audio applications

 

OEM for the well known SOLEN brand and many other film audio capacitors, the French manufacturer SCR provides one firm and unquestionable thing : exceptional quality.

SCR's capacitors feature dielectric and conducting materials and their application range is wide :

crossover networks,

tubed equipment power supplies,

coupling,

bypass.

Other features :

capacitance range goes up to very high values, a fact that makes them unique in their kind.

nominal tolerance at 5% but they always range at approx. +/- 2.5%

SCR Company (Societe de Composants Record) has a past that goes back to 1936 ! Their know-how stems from the merge of three companies:

SETA, 'Societe Electro Technique de l'Anjou', specialised (since 1936) in resistors for use in electricity and electronic industries as well as in high quality hi-fi.

LCSM, supplier (since 1955) of special-use capacitors for various applications such as lasers, cardiac defibrillator and railway signalling.

RECORD, created in 1949, famous for manufacturing of capacitors dedicated to several applications like high quality hi-fi (tube amplifiers, passive filters for loudspeakers), ventilation (VMC with capacitors of two or three capacitance values), electronic variators and non inductive filters.

In the years that followed SCR gained the commitment of several audio industries.

At present SCR is the only manufacturer when it comes to high capacitance values at voltages such as 630 V ! These capacitors have become the sole choice for high voltage audio power supplies.

Depending on the dielectric and conducting material SCR capacitors are offered in various series :

PPE Series, distributed around the globe under several brand names and the label 'FAST CAPS'. This series provides a very low tolerance value of 5%.

TIN FOIL Series. Best known products of SCR, this series incorporates a pure metal foil as the conducting material instead of the usual metallized plastic film. Tolerance values as low as 1% and 3% ! What is really interesting about them is that they offer very low distortion artifacts, series resistance and high burst currents. Due to their construction they are relatively large-sized and quite heavy. Many designers employ these capacitors in coupling applications and as the main series capacitance of high pass filters driving tweeter drivers.

TEFLON Series. A rather new and quite promising series with TEFLON dielectric material. SCR research addresses the technical issues related to the operation of capacitor dielectric materials.

TEFLON + TΙN FOIL Series. With this entirely new product series, SCR attempts to combine the two 'worlds' with excellent results

 

However, we at MTZ Audio kindly warn you : if you are looking for   cheap capacitors from Eastern Asia with or without a famous brand label, this is definitely NOT your choice !
