I doubt you'll really hear the difference. .3 pretty small jump. The .68 quite available, unless your in a remote location. I found a 1uF poly cap the other day over a Newark, since somebody bought up all the discounted ones over at AES(Steve I'm guessing). It's a Mallory 150 series, 100V cap. Nice small size capacitor if anybody interested.

Are talking about the 100K resistor in the CF. Offhand I don't know, but dont' think it will work. a CF has no gain.
