Has anyone used cerafine caps for amp power supply

I was told by Chris at parts connecXion that they are 90/95% of what blackgates are sonically 10,000uf/80vdc $35.00 each compared to $150.00 each

Seriously I put cerafines in my dynaco mkIIIs & the noise flr dropped dramatically and probably distortion was reduced perhaps they lack only a kind of liquid blackness in the silences that poetically speaking bg's might add. In short they are very good.

If you are using it just to create DC (which seems logical based on that size) you don't need one with that high voltage rating, 16v would probably be fine (depends on application), save some $. In that position it's not going to affect sonics. They are nice caps, but even still overpriced. (check other vendors too, parts connexion is not the cheapest out there)
