RE: C0G ceramic Kemet Gold Max Series 300 ?

I replaced what are likely 220pf tantalums with EVOX PFR PP AL foil and am not happy with them so far. Clearer, smoother of course but there is a thinness in sizzly cymbals , a decrease in warmth in voices and last but not least a worsening of sibilance and it's negative aspects. If I put the tants back in I won't be able to shave in the morning. The possible best choices are copper foil Amtrans and copper foil styrenes, both intolerably expensive. These are pretty small , for a dac, and have 5mm spacing. There are a total of 10 of these types of caps that need to be replaced. What to do now?? Tweaker
