Gents, can you comment after all that time of listening to Alexander caps, how do you find them ?

I am thinking of getting them, and alternative to them is Audyn True Copper.

Would appreciate help.

To me they look suspiciously like an Audio Note Cap but in a different wrapper.
I have tried the Audio Notes Copper in Oil. The experience with them will NEVER allow me to buy an "Audio" grade cap again. They were simply awful. They totally smothered the sound.
Remember this is just my opinion. To have them alter the sound so much to my ears there is definitely something going on inside those things and whatever it is I don't like it.
Voxxonline if your have not tried an off the shelf MKP Cap you owe it to yourself to try some. That's my best advise.
