That's right --- universally dissed. No one but crackpots use capacitors like those for audio. Even radio receivers have abandoned them, except the cheap ones, of course. Air is one of the lowest dielectrics there is. It isn't uniform either and the plates are free to vibrate too. Neutral sonic signature my arse.
