Hi im just curious, will an over sized resistor sound the same as the spec'ed Mills 12 watt? Just wonder if it might introduce extra noise?

I tried the OB/7's also, while they sounded great just couldn't make them work in my room.

Those look awesome by the way!


Thanks

Resistor noise would be at a low level at these low resistances. It is dependant on the resistor value and also what the resistance element is made of, metal film, carbon composition, wire wound etc. Since the larger wattage resistor is the same value and composition I can't see there being any difference in noise.
