You use these cap for analog path or power supply régulation?The crazy one has lift off
Entirely Nichicon FineGold apart from 4 x Kemet Tant/Polymer Bicapped with the 4 x 220uf 16v FineGolds on Balanced out.
The top 4 are analog path the 1 on the right lower down than the rest is power supply. It's occupying an area where a relay once lived and was removed and the circuit board cut.
As seen here along with all the other upgraded caps.

They sound phenomenal. Something about foil cables, the resolution and micro details really come alive.

You got the idea with the proven tracks! But I can’t imagine the pure gold audiophile grade foils....LoL!......Prices
I still have the silver gold foil
But I want to try out that Silver Gold Foil USB cable after I finish restoring my amplifiers.
They'll be done by Monday......Ended up being complete rebuilds.
That foil might just find it's way into the modded 1A at some point...maybe.

No, but I am sure it's out there somewhere.
Gold Foil is less conducting than coper wy use gold it is useless it is only use because it does not oxydize.You should try litz wirer to eliminate skin effect gold or silver are not god conductor.
