Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil

I have used and continue to use the Duelund silver and Sn-Cu bypass caps. Both are great. I find the Sn-cu, like the main Sn-Cu cap, are the best caps out there. They are simply beautiful sounding with all the detail and openness one could ever want, but served up in a natural and unforced manner. They also have great body and weight which is my only knock of Teflon caps which can sound colder and a tad leaner. 

The Vcaps have a sound as all caps do. I am also trying the combo of ODAMs bypassed with Vcap CuTF. I don’t expect them to sound as good as the Duelund Sn-Cu, but we will see. I am sure this combo will deliver clarity in spades, but will that have that wonderful tone and beauty of the Duelund Sn-Cu? I have my doubts.

Yeah, I had them in the pre for a couple months of daily listening... would still love to try the cutf and odams.

The Cutf is really the only part we've been playing for some years. My comments are based on them. We installed the ODAMs in one of our preamps (UV-1) and they were quite nice.

@grannyring please do report back. Looking forward to hearing the outcome. 

@ grannyring

Looking forward to your evaluation on those ODAMs; mine should arrive on Saturday and then onto the cooker and should have them installed by next weekend.

Wig. They are said to perform even better, great results, with a .01uf Vcap CuTF as a parallel/bypass cap. That is how I am using them.
