Sic Shottky diodes for Aleph L clone

[ozcal]

Hi guys , I have one of the Jim's Audio Aleph L clone boards that I have been slowly upgrading with better parts.
Is it worthwhile replacing the diodes in the bridge with Cree Sic diodes?
I have read that using SIC diodes can have a negative impact on 'musical flow' and others suggesting that they work very well if paralleled with 0.1uf stacked film caps on each diode.
Any help will be gratefully received.

I don't see that it will hurt. Give it a try.

Thanks Nelson. Are the 0.1uf caps in parallel with the diodes something you would recommend?

We tried the SIC diodes in preamps and they didn't make the cut. Good old 4004 with a .22 UF across the bridge input worked just fine. YMMV
