It's all about preference and affordability. Even a bipolar electrolytic will do if on a budget I have used Epcos motor and pump capacitors with good success.

I second this , while trying some prototyping I swapped couple of Mundorf (regular white ones) with some industry caps of the same value and honeslty it sounded the same. Again it totally depends on where in our circuit do we have those caps so that their goodness won't reach the driver. For anextreme example if we connect a 2 uf cap in series with a subwoofer, whether its of mundorf silver oil or cheap noname stuff it won't make any difference as the sub simply won't have any response in the place where the capacitors brilliance lies. So many variables here. Sometimes they make sense. Most of the time not.

The color chosen on the Solstice is quite unique - a medium chocolate toffee color - look forward to seeing how this color scheme comes up in the next coat maybe.

Its a departure from the conventional choices - black / walnut / mahogany or dark brown...

Here is another Toy in my collection.


This was one of my dream tool ... Still three more to go. A Bed Saw, A Miter Saw with slide (12" Blade) and a Heavy duty Router with Variable Speed suitable for router bits of shank size 12 mm (1/2")...
