V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp

One member here with a ds-2 (@wig I think) replaced his miflex output caps with the odams and felt that it was a substantial across the board upgrade. I replaced mine with duelund tinned copper casts and felt similarly. I also tried a number of other caps. I found the miflexs to have good tone, but they produced a flat, 2-dimensional sound stage in my system. You can read more about the cap comparisons in my system page. 

If those are the only two caps you're considering, I think the odams are an easy choice.

GR Research has their all new Copper caps on the market now...

The ODAM in my DS2 are amazing and beats the Miflex in every category from my testing. GR Copper Caps may be a contender and are quite new...

I understand this is an older thread but I wanted to provide some insight (as I know many folk find these threads via a Google search). I would have to honestly say that in my experience in dozens of amplifiers and preamps that I've tried them in, the Miflex beats the Odam in every category that is important to me- more organic tone, more transparency and a more natural midrange. I think the Odam lack good lower midrange/upper bass delineation and I simply cannot enjoy them over time- far beyond 300-500 hours, so burn in is not a concern. The Odams do seem more extended in the highs and deeper in the bass, but I have to try to convince myself that this is better. With the Miflex (once adequately burned in) everything simply sounds more right/real/correct to me. Of course, YMMV but I do not care for the Odams. 

All the best, Aric
