RE: Capacitor cooker / Break in?

Hi Lew

The Wonder Caps that I bought had magnetic connectors/leads witnessing of lack of knowledge of the manufacturer of the basics so I am afraid any cooking would not help in my particular case.

I have listened may times to paper in oil capacitors and I know that the very popular in some quarters. The ones that I have listened to all had a very marked roll-of in the heigh frequencies and sometimes a lack of inter transient silence. In certain cases this can be a blessing but generally speaking I see this as shortcomings. The sound becomes very soothing but lacks precision and airiness. Today there are so many other alternatives that I much prefer.
