Clarity Cap CMR Impressions


Hello!
Wondering if anyone has updated their passive crossover with the Clarity Cap CMR.
I'd like to hear how they compare to the MR and comparable competition. I saw some threads on the MR but not these.

Thanks 
Darren

Thanks to you both!
Appreciate the insight - and, I am thinking I’ll give the CMR a spin.

Happy Holidays.
Took advantage of PCX sale and grabbed the CMR.
Will be posting impressions in time.
Hi Dave,
Can I ask - is there a resource available online for non-engineer types like myself to help illustrate what happens to a cap over time as a signal is run through it? I'm interested in what happens, and how that relates to audio quality.

Thanks again,
Darren
Ok, wow. 
Startling dynamics. Tone, texture and nuance are all enhanced - more real -  acoustic instruments sound more like they should. Micro-dynamics are better translated, even at low volumes.Well worth the investment, in my humble system.

Hi Dave, thanks again. This was my first crossover upgrade, and I'm very happy with the result. I went from stock - which were Dayton caps - and, the improvement is significant. 

Following up...must be getting close to 100 hours on these caps. Listening to Nolatets record, Dogs, and everything is more natural sounding. Closer to being in the room - it's a live recording - and, the mids are more open and even on a track where things get frenzied with piano, vibes, drums and upright bass all going at it there's great separation (in width and depth) stability and tone. Attack of the mallets on the vibes sounds right. Great record, if you like improvised music, btw.
