The EE series has higher ripple current, and according to the data sheet, the ED series has been discontinued, although Digi-Key still has some.

The ED series is one of the finest lytics ever made.Between the ED series and the Vishay BC series,they come very close to a film cap in the power supply in the way they store and deliver energy and Jim McShane uses a ton of these in his kits and that's one of the reasons they perform so well..The EE may be better spec wise so it will be interesting if there is an improvement of an already world class cap IMHO.

Mike, These caps seem to be almost universally liked or loved. I'll listen to both EE and ED and report back, unless you get to it first. It won't be after a 500 hour burn in time though. This is just about the only subject that seems mostly free of controversy. Curiously refreshing. Tweaker
In my Atma-sphere monoblocks, I use 14 X 2000uF/200V TS-ED Panasonics per monoblock for filtering the circlotron power supply; that's seven TS-EDs per phase. I bypass each bank with 10uF REL Multicap PPFXSs. I have no idea of the relative contribution of the TS-EDs to the sound of these amplifiers, everything else is also max'd out to the best of my knowledge and ability, but the amplifiers in sum sound wonderful.
