I agree with Audioman on the Mundorf capacitors on signal. The Silver-Gold/oil has the transparency, and excellent harmonic content, while the Silver-oil lacks a little of the latter. The dry Silver-Gold just does not have the body of the other two. They may only be good for speaker bypass caps. I can see why Mundorf discontinued production of the non-oil version.

The downside of the Mundorfs with silver, is they are brighter than normal (than other capacitors and copper wire). The CAST that Audioman has, may have the qualities, without the brightness. My hold-up besides the price of the CAST, is their odd shape. Seems like they would be difficult to install. So my plan is to try the Alexanders first.
