Hi all,
I bought one of Oliver's UV / IR cut on KG3 filters to use on my TAl 100RS Stage 2 PST mod as the PST that i used was one of the early ones that did not have an ITF at the bottom of the EP holder.
I have recently upgraded to a Coronado BF10.
Do I still require this UV / IR filter?.
I would appreciate your thoughts and clarification on this.
Thank you in advance
Ian

Ian,
The built-in ITF filter at the front of the BF10 replaces the KG3 etc....
Keep it for the next mod ;-)

Thank you very much Mark and Ken for the replies. I thought not, just wanted to check.
