RE: Auricap - Love them

Hi Will,

I have never used AuriCaps (because the ones I saw use stranded leads ... and I only use solid-core wiring in the main components of my system - which is all DIY, so I can be sure of this!! :-)) ).

However, I have used SoniCap Platinums, which I have found to be good - also Mundorf Silver in Oil.

I also bought 4 pairs of 1uF AmpOhm (on the basis of the Humble HiFi review) and I could send you up a pair, to trial, if you were interested. (I will use them in the next version of the phono stage I am building ... but I haven't tried them yet.)

However, a mate of mine in Tassie just introduced some Duelund caps into a Vitus phono stage ... and he said this gave a major sonic upgrade. Before, it was on a par with the phono stage I had sold him (plus his Zyx 'Artisan') but after, the Vitus was streets ahead! :-)) (However, they are mighty pricey! :-(( )

Good luck,

Andy
