I'm really a capacitor noob since I've avoided them in the audo path, but I just compared OS-CON to Sanyo WG and Panasonic FM, and i think the OS-CON's sound better. Clearer, less grainy and more neutral. I'm not sure since the listening tests hasn't been done blinded. In the test setup they're used as rails to ground caps sinking the return current from the phones. The comparisons aren't perfect since the WG's are 2200 uF, the FM's are 330 uF and the OS-CON's are 2x100 uF. I find wet electrolytics grainy, even BlackGate NX HiQ, but they sound grainy in a nice way and have clarity like standard electrolytics lack.
I've read time and time again that OS-CON's aren't good for audio, but I've never seen a single review of them. Have any of you experience from using them in the audio path?
