I've only had a quick look at the above, and the pages linked to it.
However they don't seem to me to be particularly relevant to the
question of capacitors normally having a 'sound' in normal use.

I was trying to provide information relating to the "I see objective
measurements that indicate that there should be a difference" part, not
the "sound" as such.

Ah. So you point was that types of capacitors may well differ in ways that
we have no particular reason to think have any effect on the audible
results when they are used appropriately in audio equipment? :-)

Serge: Was what you wrote above intended to be dealing with that point? I
read the above to mean "objective measurements", etc, that support the
argument that they would lead to a "different" sound in use...

Slainte,

Jim
