Mundorf MKP Audiophiler or ClarityCap ESA ?


hi to all :) , 
i must replace electrolytic cap in my crossover.
for midbudget polypropylene caps i've thought to :

- mundorf mkp audiophiler  
- claritycap ESA

opinions abut them?

thank you

That guy’s opinions and that site is one giant pile of crap
And your evidence is . . . ?
I will soon upgrade the caps on my Thiel CS2.4s with Clarity CSA (plus ~1% Multicap RTX bypasses for the coax feeds).
@beetlemania Go for it. But CSA won’t be much of an upgrade from the existing Solen/Axon caps.

MultiCap RTXs are amazing, but not for work crossover work. 

If you want a real upgrade, use film/foil, otherwise why bother? 

My Thiel boards are full of CYC MKTs, not Solens. The CSAs *are* a film cap, no?

I will report my subjective results on the "Thiel Owner's Thread". I've already upgraded my resistors with Mills MRA-12s to great satisfaction.

Meanwhile, what is your evidence that humblehomemadehifi "is one giant pile of crap"?

You seem to be taking this stuff personal... I is not meant to be. I am not peddling anything, but I have read through his site thoroughly. After you piqued my interest, I went searching to see if it was indeed Audiocaps that I had years ago, that is when I ran across this.
In general, film & foil caps are better than metalized polypropylene caps for sure, but every cap is different....
Are you saying that all film & foils are better than all Metalized poly’s? Are Polystyrenes better? What about Teflon’s? I know for sure that there are exceptions.

You know, one of the better caps that I’ve ever heard is an old Poly carbonate. Man, Just rich, great extension, detailed... we had about 100 of them, I don’t even know their brand was, but I wish that I could lay my hands on some of those today.

Also, You say CSA will not be an upgrade over Solen??? come on, really. although, I have done many Solen PPE bypassed with either a .5mfd or ever a 1.0 mfd K71 old Russian Poly Styrene with excellent results. Overall, I found the opinions on the Humble site fairly close to mine, although, there were a few times that I thought he was really off... but he has definitely taken the time to listen to and document many caps. Not too many people can say the same. I have a lot of respect for the guy just doing it.
I don’t ever want to come off disrespectful to anyone on this site, we are all at a different state of learning. I can only hope that we can all respect each other     AND by the way.  I have also experimented with several machine start up caps.  I've been shocked by a few at how good they sounded... When you need 50 mfd or better,  some of those will surprise you.  Of course,  here it is a complete risk of return on the investment, but I've been pleasantly surprised. 

@beetlemania Thiel used CYC as bypass capacitors. They’re film. Was this ever questioned? 2.4s’ main capacitors are Solen or Axon branded (all made by SCR), and even several electrolytic capacitors. I recommend you leave this project alone.
