Audio Note CAP-5020 Tin Foil Capacitor 0.022 µF 630 V 10%
Designed for use in the finest audio components, the CAP-5020 employs high purity tin foil as its main conductive material, setting it apart from standard industrial-grade capacitors. This material selection is the result of exhaustive listening tests comparing various polypropylene, polycarbonate, polystyrene, and polyester alternatives, ensuring a component that remains true to the original signal without introducing coloration or unwanted artifacts.
One of the distinguishing features of the CAP-5020 is its oil filling, which further refines its sonic qualities compared to dry tin foil types. The oil not only improves dielectric properties but also aligns the manufacturing process with Audio Note’s renowned copper foil and silver/mylar capacitor lines. This ensures a consistently high standard of performance across the entire range, making it ideal for audiophile-grade crossover components and signal path applications.
With its precise 0.022 µF rating, 630 V voltage handling, and tight 10% tolerance, the CAP-5020 is perfectly suited for demanding roles in amplifiers and high-fidelity audio circuits. Its robust construction and carefully selected materials make it a reliable choice for both new builds and upgrades, providing consistent results and long-term stability in critical signal paths.
Thanks to its carefully engineered dimensions—28 mm in length and 15 mm in diameter—the CAP-5020 offers easy integration into a variety of DIY kits, restoration projects, and bespoke audio equipment. Whether used in signal coupling, tone circuits, or crossover networks, this tin foil capacitor provides the clarity, precision, and musicality that audio purists seek.
