RE: Replacing capacitors in 2.7 QR

Like the 1.7 the main plus is that the 2.7 is a foil and wire driver speaker but near the size of the 3 models. So you get a more coherent sound character up and down the the freq spectrum. What is lost is the ribbon's remarkable transient speed detail and extension.

The issue of PG''s secret sauce matching of caps for a particular sound is something only he can provide but you can choose caps by their signatures on standardized listening tests reported on a couple of sites.

I can say that the Dayton foils are on par with the rel cap polystyrenes and the new Jupiter copper in wax are near the same level as the Duelund and V cap but cost about half as much. That opinion is derived as I have not that kind of budget for caps.
