Mundorf (non-oil) Silver / Gold EVO MCap Supreme coupling caps in your tube amp ???

Anyone have good luck with these caps in your tube amp?

>> Mundorf (non-oil) MCap Supreme EVO Silver/Gold coupling capacitors << .22uf / 1000VDC

Previously tried Clarity MR caps and Jensen Copper Oil caps in my prior (same brand) tube amp with decent success. The Jensen oils were nice and a bit more syrupy sounding than my former Clarity caps, were too harsh for me. Looking for something in between. Normally I almost always prefer oil caps; maybe not this time. We will see. For my newer tube amp, a few folks who modify/upgrade Cary tube amps recommended installing these Mundorf (non-oil) Silver Gold Supreme EVO caps - reportedly for a bit more "open and extended air, ,with more bass, and still retaining a nice lush sound" as compared to my former Jensen oil caps. I did listen to my exact same tube amp with similar tube compliment with high-end V-Caps and it was a bit too lean for my taste. I’m hoping these new EVO caps sit somewhere in between and still retain a nice smooth sound.  

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Another M fan here, Now that i upgraded my IC cable (see my latest topic in cables forum), the Mundorf Supremes in the Defy 7 have really come through,,,I was concerned as i modded the Cayin cd player with M caps, the preamp with M caps and then the defy with all kinds of top quuality caps,,yet something was blocking the gains,,i figured it was the preamp,,then I got the new IC cable and , ,all the Mundorf caps now beagan singing w2ith gogeous openness, spacious,  realism, 
No  dount the Mundorf black supreme or the smaller brothers the white caps (for space constrainst and/or budget constraints) both will add textures and openess to your system. 
Highly recommended. 
havea  used Jadis DPL arriving tomorrow, which will be recaped with M caps, plenty of space,,but will have to go white caps for budget constraints, The Supremes would cost a  fortune..and I am not so sure the Supremes are worth the extra 2X's cost vs the white body caps. 
Could you tell which is which in a  blind test?
