Jeff, As you know, we disagree on the matter of parallel caps or cap bypassing. In my experience, a single very high quality cap always sounds better than a cocktail mixture of different caps, no matter what their value or brand. I can always hear their individual contributions and the result is a less coherent, less organic sound. Bypass caps can make the sound seem faster and more spectacular but it's not as natural. Maybe someone with different priorities would reach different conclusions but that's what I hear.
