New V-CAP CuTF capacitor

V-CAP has just released a new capacitor - CuTF - copper foil/teflon that they feel is the cat's meow. Apparently a lot of R&D went into it, per their website. It is more expensive than the TFTF but appears to promise the "soul of music" inherent in copper. I've been quite happy with the TFTF (tinfoil/teflon) caps I put in my BAT VK150SE amps but have decided to take the plunge with this new cap. Will post results in the near future.

1 - CuTF is the best cap (1 uF or less) in the world.
3 - Very similar in sonic signature to Mudorf Gold/Silver/Oil but better.
3 - Designed for tube application mostly i.e. with high voltage and therefore rather large size.
4 - Expensive!

"...I am using the .22 uf CuTF as coupling caps in my BAT 150SE amps "

Hello Rgurney: Can you please clarify if you use your CuTF caps as coupling or as its bypass.

I used these caps in output cap position in some equipment and bypass in other, in my own system - truly exceptional cap, exactly as I wrote above.

Thank you.
