You got the only Vishay bulk foil resistor that sounds like crap. Tried them from Percy Audio years ago and they are grainy/bright...bad. The ceramic coating kills the good sound. Also you never want to hang a component in the air on two solid core leads.....it rings. Put a small piece of contrained layer damping material from the resistor body to some other surface. You could use a tiny bit of amazing Goop from the resistor to another surface as well.

Get rid of em!!!!
