Mustard Cap™ - The Marshall™, Neve™, Vox™ and Hiwatt™ Clone Capacitors

The leads on SoZo Mustard Caps capacitor are a superior tin coated pure copper lead style, which aid in replicating the sound they strove to reproduce. They are not the cheaper copper clad steel which deliver only 30% of pure coppers conductivity. SoZo found the length of the capacitor in reference to the diameter participates in the behavior of the frequencies and current delivery rate of the capacitor (called its slew rate). Keeping the same dimensions dramatically changed the sound and the capacitor was again made true to the original. The result is the audio signal leaves the capacitor at the same rate as the original retaining its performance. It will take up to 100 hours of break in for the capacitor to operate to its full potential. The dielectric will polarize and develop a pattern creating a clearer, full frequency sound.

How does this translate into sound? SoZo is of the opinion that this is a successful recreation of the original and a superbly built and sounding capacitor. When one considers the audio signal passes through as many as ten capacitors before exiting the amplifier, you can see how these components play an extremely large role in the tone of the amplifier.

All capacitors meet MIL-STD. 202 C, Method 103 B ± 5% tolerance. Every single capacitor fully tested!
