RE: Is running DHT's in H plane Ok ?

You probably use more Dynamicaps than I do, but I would warn you to be very careful if you are messing with the leads at or near where they enter into the body of the capacitor. Dynamicaps, like the Infinicaps that went before them, are very fragile where there is a glop of solder between the lead and the body.

Apart from that, I would be very interested to know whether there is any trend to your findings about capacitor orientation, using the listening method. Are you finding in general that what is considered electrically optimal (outer foil toward lowest impedance) is also optimal for your subjective evaluations? Or is there no consistent relationship? Thanks.
