Mundorf M-Cap Supreme Silver/Gold 1200VDC – 2% tolerance

Technical Specifications: The coil technology of the Supreme capacitors is combined with silver foil, containing 1% gold. According to Mundorf the crystalline structure of the silver is also improved. Available in values from 0.1uF to 1.0 uF. Made from 99% pure silver and 1% Gold metallised foils. Dielectric: Polypropylene, Metallization: 99.99% pure silver with 1% gold, Dielectric strength: 1200V DC 800V AC, Tolerance: ± 2%, typ. 1% Loss angle tan d = 0.00002 to 1kHz Loss angle tan d = 0.00001 to 10kHz.

Sound: Nicely clear and transparent, rich textured treble, very spacious – front to back and left to right, very good separation of individual instruments, deep black background, clean and dynamic, heaps of micro-detail information, the details get high-lighted a little. I know one could easily think that this capacitor must be good because everyone says so and it is very expensive but I have tried to keep my objective view and even so I am very impressed. Were I would describe the Silver/Oil as extremely neutral, I would describe the Silver/Gold as extremely natural if you know what I mean. Acoustic instruments like a viola da gamba sound really life-like. In comparison to the Duelund Copper Foil capacitor they can sound a little bright in the top-end, but this can be a plus point if you want to brighten up a dull sounding system or you just dig those so-called “high-end” recordings with bells, chimes and things. They are by no means harsh, just on the clear side of neutral sometimes.

Verdict: 11+
