Thanks for the offer!! Actually, I would never own these capacitors, for the following reasons:1: The equipement that these caps were installed into did'nt do anything for me - ARC Ref ll pre and phonostage, Dr. Arthur Loesch pre.
2: Cost - I simply would refuse to "pay that type of money" for a part that I now know would not be satisfactory in my applications.
3: The percieved "bed-fellow" syndrom regarding the "hype" with the V-Cap modification of the Hurricanes.
4: My extensive experience with the Ansar caps in my system leaves not doubt in my mind which is the most neutral cap to be had to date, and I tried most of them.
5: My response to your add regarding the V-Cap insofar as "Capacitor Ageing" is concerned - ie. - snake-oil!!
In closing, allow me to say this: I hope that the promise of your product will be "positive" for you - that is, after all, what you are after!!
Thank you for "exposing" my previous (I think 14 posts)to the various boards. One-track mind you say - damn right. Appears that we "do not" agree on anything, except that the Ansars are indeed very special!!
Cheers, William
