The size of the mid caps
Vintage is (can type rounded edges)
95mm long x 52mm wide x 32mm high
Total mm3 158,080 (somewhat less for rounded corners)
Sonicap
14mm radius x 50mm long so
30,772 cubic mm
Supreme (from website as I do not have the caps)
10uf (supreme caps)
18mm radius x 106mm long
107,840 cubic mm
3.3uf cap
15mm raius x 56mm long
39,564 cubic mm
For a total of 147,404mm3
So a Supreme is roughly 5x as big as a Sonicap and likely slightly bigger than the different style vintage cap. (rounded corners taken off)
So is it a wonder that Supreme's sound more dynamic??? I know some say you can not use that but both Mundorf Supreme's and Sonicaps are similiar style and you pay for what you get.
To me they sound similiar but much more dynamic. (the Supreme's)
To people who read this in the future if you go to small on your caps you get this feeling the cap sounds like a filter.
