especially your subjective judgement, is not open to challenge, but when you use language such as this, in describing the effect of re-orienting those two capacitors: " It was fuzzy and muffled sounding versus the correct orientation, like someone robbed the music of its timbres slightly, and threw gauze over the speakers."
Don't you open yourself up to some criticism, since you were heretofore all aglow about the sound of this amplifier? Probably, the difference between one orientation and the other is very subtle, such that maybe only you can discern it, because of your familiarity with the sound of your system. Sometimes in an effort to describe auditory phenomena, we are forced to use hyperbole.

Fine !! All I want is ti know audibly, what orientation sounds best to me, and employ that best-sounding-to-me orientation in what I am using.Tha amount of wire, going into and out of a film cap, is a whole other area to optimize Lew, and I am TRYING to do that also. By ear.
Lots of fun to hear all of this !!

Jeff

at least all of us who are incorrigible tinkerers.
Lew,
My Dad's father, who I never met, but am named after ( Julius, Jeffrey ) was an inventor. He invented the equivalent of a Xerox machine, which he never patented. So, I often think of him as I tinker and ponder the genes.
He was a Russian immigrant, New Brunswick, NJ.
