Dayton foil caps provide amazing cost/ performance

I like the Dayton brand foil and polypropelene bypass caps available in standard useful values from PartsExpress.

I like the Dayton foil caps. Amazing cost/ performance. They make any of the metalized film type caps I've tried sound like a filter. Parallel to make larger values.

Obbligato, Russian Teflons and the oil-in-foil AmpOhm caps are some of the better ones I've heard. Not too pricey either.

Obbligato ....and the oil-in-foil AmpOhm caps..

Thanks, wondered about those two. I need a ~10uF for a parafeed tube preamp. Right now it's running a cheap no-name ceiling fan capacitor 🙂tilt🙂 which loses no ground to Solen.
