Re: I don't buy it.

Yes but all caps don't have the same internal resistance.
True, but is this a function of capacity or just a different parameter?

Or internal inductance for that matter.
I don't think induction really plays a role here. For a lot of (good) capacitors inductance is mainly determined by the length of the leads, that small.

I hear it and you don't - fine. Much cheaper for you. Or do you hear it and just haven't heard an acceptable explanation for it?
Actually I have no capacitor in the signal path anywhere. So I can't comment on that. Ofcourse I did experiment with different capacitors in the past, now I only use GE motor run capacitors. I use the size that I need, varying from 10uF to 80uF. I never noticed a slow or fast effect, but I'll pay some extra attention next time I'm on the breadboard again.

The only thing I said is that I don't buy the 'large capacitors are slow argument' based on the theory presented here. The arguments so far just don't make sense to me.
