FT-3 and Rike PIO caps

Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Parts Connexion currently sells the following caps:

1) Russian Military NOS
FT-3 (0.22uf 600V)
Teflon Film & Aluminum Foil Capacitors

http://www.partsconnexion.com/capacitor_film_russian_ft3.html
and
2) Rike Paper in Oil,
Aluminum Foil Capacitors (0.22 VDC and 0.47uf 600VDC for my other project)

http://www.partsconnexion.com/capacitor_film_rike.html

I am wondering whether:
1) the Russian FT-3 caps could cure the boring sound (irrespective of tubes used) of my Cary SLI-80 amplifier which mostly collects dust) (the current caps are Jensen PIO 0.22 uf 600VDC); and

2) Rike Paper in Oil are good capacitors and I can try their 0.22uf caps with Cary and 0.47uf 600VDC as coupling caps in my Image 34i integrated amp?

All recommendations and opinions will be highly appreciated.

By boring do you mean lacking in dynamics or rolled off in the highs?..... - viridian 07:23:10 08/11/14 (1)
