Arguing the sound of capacitors is kind of like arguing about religion; I never quibble with anyone else's preference. From all that I know, Mundorfs are very good. I also like MIT RTX and most teflon caps, altho the latter are quite expensive. MITs take a long time to break in and sound plastic-y until they do. For lower values, the Russian teflon caps available on eBay may be a very good choice to save lots of money and if you have space. (They are quite large.) But by all means do try the Mundorfs. Another good cap I have heard of lately is the Clarity line of caps, particularly the MR. I personally do not like traditional paper in oil caps; many swear by them.
