<<Did you try the Mundorf resistors with the vcap?>>
I just went back and looked at my listening notes for the comparison sessions. I preferred the Path Audio resistors with the ODAM caps. From the notes: "ODAM likes the slightly richer and darker Path resistors. MResist Ultra more neutral."
Pure Audio Project provides a nice crossover circuit board with their speakers with screw terminals for the components -- it's easy to swap back and forth and compare crossover parts.
<<Curious your thoughts on Vcap vs the Mundorf caps too.>>
The Mundorf caps with the MResist Ultra resistors were a pretty big improvement over the ODAM/Path in my system for my taste. I think it's going to depend on the overall system though which wins. Brightness with the Mundorf components could definitely be an issue in some systems. Also, if the system leans towards voluptuousness already, the Mundorf components may be too much of a good thing.
From my notes:
"SGO handles complex music better... instruments in their own spaces. SGO richer more nuanced bass. Supreme EVO SGO a more powerful sound overall than ODAM... Works well with the Mundorf Ultra resistors... snapper drum hits, clearer, etc. Best aspect of SGO better tonal colors. Also, wet bass of SGO better match for my new Holo May DAC vs drier ODAM bass. But the ODAMS work well with wetter Yggdrasil DAC OG or LiM bass. Better treble nuance with new resistors and caps. Swapping out one of the Ultra resistors for the Path, system sounded weaker and whispy. Interesting. Tonal colors lessened. Not just the SGO caps with better tone colors, it's the resistors."
<<From Jaytor -- I've used the ODAMs in a couple tube designs and liked the way they sound - very transparent.>>
I thought they could be good in tube amps and preamps since they are transparent and neutral. Good to hear that confirmation from you.
