Update: I’m afraid I misspoke. Chris infrorms me that the Tone capacitors are not low-value ODAMs, but another design entirely that just shares the same case. He did say that others have also used them as coupling caps to good effect. Whatever their design they sound amazing, and beautifully complement the ODAM line. Pure speculation here, but I suspect that, given their original (guitar, guitar/amp) target, they favor Tone over imaging and the like. They certainly reproduce vivid tone colors that nicely complement the main strength of my Spendor BC-1 speakers - their timbral accuracy.
Also should have added that all these capacitors have painfully long break-in times (many hundreds of hours), and can sound quite constricted and artificial during run-in. Well worth the wait however!
