I know I have some around here somewhere. I have hundreds of caps in so many types from oil, to teflon but of course what i need here are the electrolytics. The thing with the Black Gates is that they take a long time for form and some people, even after a few hundred hours, give up and conclude they aren't as good as some say. I have done that to only put them back in the circuit and let them work away. They can take many hundreds of hours to the point that some will say it is the person adjusting and not the cap but I have used a control to compare them to, in another amp, and they do change, for the better.I am thinking of socketing, with very low profile tight sockets, my map to try out different caps. The amp is very revealing and changes sound with resistors or any caps, to the point that you don't have to squint your ears to hear the difference. :^)
