Since I'm going for a very vintage sound (my preference), what caps have you tried (speakers or coupling) that struck you as super soft and/or smooth sounding (which would include the effect of being very low distortion). Resolution's irrelevant here. I need large values (2.2uF and 3.3uF), so Russian jobbies are out (already tried them years ago -- they were "OK")

Hey!

   Haven't tried them all but so far I'd say Jupiter Copper Foil Paper and Wax cap. I tried them in my SET amps and they are just way too smooth for me.
