Circuit designer select ceramic caps for a reason, in some place on the circuit ceramic caps is the best choice.
Anyone replace ceramic caps with film?
Looking to replace some tiny generic ceramic caps with an Amtrans AMCH polypropylene film. The value is 220pF, so I haven't found many audio-grade choices in this range.
I'm _assuming_ almost any upgrade from a generic Mouser part to an audio-grade one is worth it, but anyone done this can tell me how it sounds?

That reminded me a discussion about four and a half years ago: levinson has odd choice for cap upgrades in one of their service bulletins
@pragmasi is exactly correct! The X7R ceramic cap’s ESR allows the cap itself to damp any ringing/resonance.
