CCS capacitor bypass - silver mica?

2.151.85.222

Hello!

Do you think I can get better sound if I change the bypass capacitors (68pF) on my CCS'es from Wima to something exotic like silver mica?

You're making me laugh! Silver micas are the oldest of the pF level capacitors, so how can they be exotic?

I haven't tried it, but I would be surprised if there was much of a sonic difference.

  Thank you for the answer. Maybe "exotic" was the wrong expression. I've heard good things about non-magnetic silver micas in other settings.
