            <div>What is your preferred type of smd capacitors for audio
              circuits? I don't mean oscillators (those get NP0/C0G
              caps), but all that other stuff, including amplifiers,
              filters, voltage rail decoupling, and ac coupling (output
              caps). I'm mainly interested in 0603, 0804, 1206
              footprints.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>Obviously larger values might need to be (some form of)
              cans with smd footprint, so if you have a favourite of
              that type, mention that too.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>This is not about bypass capacitors used in digital
              circuits (eg the x7r kind).</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>The main points for the smaller (0603-1206) caps might
              be:</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>- available as smd, 0603 is best (this kind of parts is
              in a sweet spot being cheaper than larger or through-hole
              counterparts)</div>
            <div>- no microphonics</div>
            <div>- little temp co</div>
            <div>- low esr</div>
            <div>- available in relatively large-ish values (1206 if
              necessary)</div>
            <div>- low capacitance loss induced by dc bias</div>
            <div>- good for audio</div>
            <div>- not insanely expensive</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>I'm interested in both your favourite dielectric type,
              and specific manufacturers or model families.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>What sorts of values do you normally use in those
              applications? (It's enough to mention ranges like "between
              .1 uF and 100 uF", listing every value would naturally be
              too much trouble for people answering)</div>
            <div><br>

            <div>Thanks</div>
