For lowest noise, what is the proper orientation, proper way to connect the outside foil, of film output coupling caps in a phono preamp? If it depends on the circuit, can I just measure the resistance from either side of the capacitor to a ground reference? Do you consider the input impedance of the equipment (preamp) it's hooked up to?
Thanks.
