DUELUND´s CAST PIO Copper Cap!






Therefore the Tube-I-zator must go to the 2nd floor

Sound review


Now after ~150 hrs. burn in time, i will share my impressions with these outstanding caps.

I had a déjà vu after changing from my previous Mundorf Suprem silver/gold/oil caps to the Duelund CAST PIO Copper.
The same difference as in my 300B mono block´s.

This openness, clarity, three-dimensionality with so many more subtleties and micro informations, absolute breathtaking.
Only the Duelund CAST has the possibility to reproduce this 3D soundstage and is able to place every part of the event so exact in this room.
...Outstanding...

These are no cheap caps for sure, but the sound result is so far away from the well regarded Mundorf S/G/O...
If you have the financial possibilities, do it!

Thank´s again to partsconnexion, that they made it possible to bring this outstanding capacitor in such a compact housing to the market!

    Looking forward to your results. Even though I'll probably never buy them.
