How "much better" today's cap performance ?

Hi.

As I posted repeatedly, a practical cap is not a pure capacitance device. It is built up of a complex LCR network: its DCR, self indutance, capacitance C, dielectric loss R & insulation loss Rin.

Unless today's caps are built of some space-shuttle techologies I am not aware of, its LCR equivalence should be the same. Maybe modern designs will improve the magnitude of the individual L, C or R elements, to deliver better performance, but the basics remain same.

Correct me if I am incorrect.
