Thanks folks.
I tried a couple of things.
First, I soldered some very thin wire through the hole, tinned them up along with the thick copper leads from the Duelund, soldered them all together and kept the caps loose, dangling in mid air. Listened to them and was very impressed with the improved SQ... but only had to secure the caps.
Then, I disassembled what I had just done. I took 2 of those 1 inch square, peel off and stick on things that allow you to run a tie wrap through them. I added some shrink wrap over the cap leads, and just soldered them over the hole instead of through them.
Funny thing is, the SQ does not seem as good as it did then I used the thin wire and had the caps dangling. Not as much air in the highs. I think that it may be because the cap has not had a chance to burn in. I am going to keep it as is for now, but I may go back to the thin wire and dangling cap again, if I don't get the SQ as good as I heard it.
Hey, thanks again folks.
