Anyone have an experience with these? They seem "light", leads are scrawny, and there are dark spots on them. Not sure if that's a sign of leakage, or they're just dirty, or if they are even caps best suited for audio.

Orange drops that went moldy.
They're probably more or less OD equivalents just Mallory instead of Sprague. Probably work just fine for audio. Use 'em to replace caps in spotty moldy scrawny old amps, to retain that "as original" tone...

They work fine for guitar/audio amps.
They work particularly well for people allergic to orange...

Look like the caps you'd see in Silvertones, Sanos and Dynacos. Minty green must've been fashionable for dipped caps in the mid 60s. I know from experience that a cap can be too expensive to sound good, but can one be too cheap to sound good
