I have rolled all kinds of high end caps in the coupling position. The Mundorf SGO caps are good, but nowhere near the glorious sound and dead quiet background of the Duelund CAST caps.
The two best I have heard in tube amps and preamps are..
Duelund CAST caps
JB JFX Premium film caps
The JB caps come very close and only cost $3-$10 depending on size. They can be purchased at Just Radios in Canada.
They are not quite as extended in the top end as the CAST, but give little else up. The CAST have a blacker background also. the JB's have better bass and are a little warmer sounding without giving up any detail. I know it is hard to believe a $3 cap can sound that good, but they do. I prefer these over the Mundorf SGO's as well as several other Aphile friends that have tried them and now use them.
