How does smoke effect speakers?
I find that when I burn my food and fill the house full of smoke, my soundstage collapses. 
Clarity Caps vs Kimber kaps
You can find MR's from Capsandcoils.com for half of Madisound's price. The only downfall is that they're overseas and shipping can take a few weeks.

If you want them to be less harsh, I would avoid Solen like the plague. You should look into Sonic Caps. IMO, they're the best bang for the buck out there.

It is a film cap and is a #71348 available from Parts Connexion.I used it in a similar application, to filter out bass from a open baffle speaker. I didn't notice any negative effect on SQ, but it was only used on a woofer. If you use a smaller ca...

Tonight a friend and I swapped out Solen, Clarity MR's, Mundorf S/O, and Duelund copper VSF's in a pair of custom speakers I designed and built. Other than the MR's being slightly quieter and slightly more dynamic, the Duelunds put the rest to sha...

I'm currently using Duelund resistors. They remind me of mox type resistors without the glare. Very clean and transparent unlike Mills.
