I have many matched sets of Vishay foils on my bench;  Is there any problem with me replacing the resistors included in the kit, with ultra high precision metal foil resistors with the same resistance spec?


Thanks!

No problem replacing but no effect either.

THNX @JPK, much appreciated!

My particular build is integrated in a touring rig that ends up plugged into the power networks of many poorly regulated venues.  It will also be subject to much more external radiation than would be typical in a studio or desktop deployment, so I am looking for any components in the BOM for which I can provide alternates that will help keep the noise floor as low as possible.  Cost isn't really a concern.  
I mentioned the resistors because I have many alternates in stock - any other alternative component suggestion?


Thanks again!

The most effective action would be to always make sure the unit is sufficiently ventilated, avoiding heat build up inside the unit. I can't think of any other improvement: the most fragile components are the electrolytic capacitors which  already are 105°C, long life components.

Noted.  Thanks for taking time to address my question!
