Terry,

I've spent a lot of time surching the List archives and so far have
not found an answer to my question.  What would you recommend
as the best size (in megohms I would presume), and wattage level
to use with an MMC stack?  I just bought 12 of the CD-942's and
will be using all of them in series for a final cap rating of .012 mfd.

I know many folks have used resistors to equalize the voltage
distribution in these series strings.  Unfortuantely, I never saved
any of those posts to the List.  Any help or advice you can give
will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Bill Wysock.
