Capacitor rolling.


My son is getting to the Audio World.  Bought a Vincent Hybrid Pre-Amp and Vincent Hybrid Amp.

Both us MKP Film caps on each signal line-out paths. He wants a little more warm from the/voice- strings

Audio Note offers  some of their Caps for those Cap rollers. In Silver/Gold./ Cooper &Alum foil.

Very pricey compared to MKP caps. 7 times+

By the way MKP is widely used by many high-end electronic audio gear Mfg because of their very-very neutral sound & fast transits. Has anyone in this forum  have any feed back on CAP rolling? And Audio Note Caps??

Trust Me signal path Cap rolling can produce more changes than Tube rolling does in some cases..

Dear @tubes444 :  I never tested the cooper Jupiter in my system so I can't be sure how good are but reading through different people/reviews i found out these kind of statements that makes me think are not really neutral but " colored ":


"" Jupiter copper also possesses great low-midrange richness and color that far "  

 " high degree of resolution, musicality, color "

" with "more" richness and musicality "


musicality, color richness are terms used by audiophiles for home audio system performance levels but almost never we can hear those terms when we are talking of live MUSIC at near-field.

Btw, teflon V-caps comes too in a cooper version. Other caps I have experiences with are the Sonicaps platinum and are way neutral.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC not DISTORTIONS,

When oscilloscopes pay for the gear, I'll let them tell me my values, Until then, I buy what I like to listen to, can afford and can put in my living room without blocking the windows. :)


Having said that, I did in fact choose Clarity for their absolute transparency.

Still, I can see "enriched" caps as being desirable as well.
The poster is looking for warmth. All caps have a sound or personality as does all gear. The Jupiter VT caps are natural sounding with lots of meat on the bones....opposite of thin and bright sounding. Nice resolution, but they deliver the goods with a nice warmth. Perfect for the poster.

The Jupiter copper foil caps are more resolute yet, with more top end extension and air. They reveal Micro details of the music better and do all of this with a smoothness that is both natural and easy on the ears. 

Yes the Jupiter caps are very,  very quiet and well damped just like  Duelund caps. Amazing what the removal noise does for music!
