Oil is great for longevity - you will never have to replace them, and they probably have less parasitic resistance, but I doubt that you'd actually be able to hear the difference.
As I have already recapped the W2's, I may try Paper in Oil in my older W2's or in my Kingsdales instead.
The older W2's have quite a different sound and are wonderful with Jazz and blues (before a recap). They are also much heavier and infinite baffle.
My Kingsdales are a bit later, but have a tuneful bass and image well which is quite different to a pair of Dovedale III's that I also have. I find that strange, as the Kingsdales just look like larger Dovedales, so I expected them to have a similar sound (just with deeper bass).
I am not so sure that I would recap the Dovedale III's, as I find them quite a disappointment.
