New Jupiter Comet and VitaminQ Silver PIO Capacitors


Has anyone tried the Jupiter Comet and VitaminQ Silver PIO capacitors?

How do they compare to Duelund Silver Bypass capacitors?

Regards,

Alex.

Just saw this,

I have been meaning to post about Comet and vitamin Q silver PIO caps.

I replace them in my line stage coupling position (comet), and output (comet /vitaminQ paralleled.  Preamp is a very nice Jadis jp200 mc ..  This swap was not cheap as the amp uses .47 uf and 1 uf in the positions.

The results were  worth it though,.. these jupiter caps are the only ones I have ever tried that have this level of resolution , yet still retain a completely natural presentation.  They are more natural sounding to me than duelund ( which I like their copper cast).

As far as Duelund goes, i prefer jupiter comet or vit Qsilver PIO, even given their cost as they sound more natural to me.  I do however like duelunds speaker crossover inductors, I replace a alphacore copper foil with a duelund recently in my first order series crossover for my big altec clone horns and ,....wow amazing sense of space , resolution ,  timing.. they are not THAT pricey either, littel bit more that twice the alpha cores.

I have heard good things about the silver mica as well, might try as a bypass in my crossover.
