yep-- i could tell from the minute i stuck them in they were a no go... the foil is WAY too thick.
i've used what i've been able to track down via ebay, and other nefarious means-- so those came in a lot of other lower voltage caps-- all in the 1-200v range. finding some of the larger value, lower voltage caps (or 16 of them!), would require more patience and time than i have currently! i know.. i know.. but the music's got to play! refining is one thing.. but NO music.. that's not a good option!
the hovlands were an experiment as well- but they have a lot less self noise than the big VQ... for very obvious reasons!
i'd be very glad to take any spares you may have adding up to 16uF though if youve got 'em!
