As I've mentioned before, the big oil caps are very good for the money. If prototyping, use em...unless you just don't have the space..

I personally have learned to totally dislike the sound of electrolytics in the PS (like a wet blanket draped over the speakers) ...with that said, much of this opinion has resulted from dealing with old commercial stuff that used cheap caps to start. I'm sure that there are some nice sounding electrolytics out there for the C1 position but they are almost certainly pricey compared to the big oil caps...
