It’s interesting to hear how does this low end capacitor would sound. So I eventually try to obtain it. I just can’t stop my passion in this. Sigh…
Priced at very low value (just a little bit more expensive than Audio Note Mylar version), this Alexander capacitor from Duelund got ‘unique’ 900VDC rating. Based on its specification and capacitance availability, I’m quite sure this is more for electronic circuit instead of crossover.
Interesting to hear how does it sound. I also order the new version of Duelund CAST Cu capacitor. Although they are at different level, but at how much? That would be remained as question, until I try it.
All I need is some more time… 🙂

October 19, 2011 23:57Hi Pak Erik,
Kebetulan lagi ga ada waktu Pak. Lagian preamp saya lagi siap2 masuk chassis juga…
Kalo lawan Mundorf Silver Oil sih rasanya beda kelas ya? Kalo lawan AudioNote mungkin selera lebih berperan…
Thanks.

October 24, 2011 19:22I just got mine – 3.3uf value … will be hearing in my preamp this weekend …
Trying to find a way to mount it. Hopefully will be improvement from Mundorf Supreme

October 24, 2011 22:41Hi David,
I don’t think Mundorf Supreme can compete…
Thanks.

There truly IS NO COMPARISON between the Alexanders and the Supremes ….
I am lost for words … just enjoy the sound 🙂

So predictable…
Thanks.

December 6, 2011 20:38The Alexander caps are now 100% burned in, and I feel they have settle down enough for me to conclude the one cap per channel in my preamp has made a world of difference in my system. They have a very “real” presentation, very dynamic, and a very intimate sound stage. You get a sense of life-like presence in the room like no other. It is just on the borderline of harsh, but no – detailed, but just tamed enough to have horn-like dynamics and liveliness without the edge. Love it! Pitty CAST series is not in 400VDC +.

December 6, 2011 22:58I have tried this Alexander (finally). My conclusion is simple… this is good stuff, but no match compared to CAST… 🙂
Btw, CAST is on 630VDC, as I also use them (the CAST Silver) – CAST Cu also offers 630VDC…
Thanks.
