RE: Wonder Cap with Danor

I thought I had read that the white WonderCaps (with danor) were produced by IMB, but that might not be correct. In my experience with them, what mattered most was which series they were as noted by the label code suffix. the original ones (no suffix just a number like 7205) were dynamic but dry and forward sounding. OK if your tubes were overly colored and warm sounding. The later versions (with numbers like 7205A printed on them) were much more full bodied and are still an excellent capacitor for audio coupling. I found them generally a better choice than the common WIMA MKP10 or RelCaps or even the newer TRT InfiniCap polypropylenes I tried back when.

I can understand questioning the IAR reviews of components that had TRT capacitors in them, but it was up to the manufacturer to decide it was worth putting them into their products. With the hobbyist sales channel available for them, anyone else could install them too.
