Duelund Capacitors??

Does anyone know what the sonic differences are between the copper foil capacitors and the aluminum foil capacitors.
The copper caps are twice the price. are you getting twice the sonic benefit by using copper over aluminum foil caps?

The New Duelund Jam  caps use Tin -Copper foil in oil cap , they have several
Different case types depending on size. Which give a slightly different character.
These are s step up from the  Jensen from my experirnce could be too because of the paper case in Jensen vs my caps  metalcase,vs paper giving paper  bit softer balance on the leading edge .

Sorry, need to clarify something I read.

Jensen is NOT "the OEM" for Duelund. Jensen makes one line within their pretty broad spectrum of capacitors for them.

Best,

Has anyone compared the Dueland JAM or the Jensen VSF with the Audyn Pure copper capacitors in general, or in the 0.1uf or 2.2uf values, in particular? I know there's a significant price difference but I'm more curious about the sonic differences.

The specific application is in a tube preamp cathode follower signal path.

Thanks.
