Dear friends I am interested to upgrade my caps in the tube preamp from Audio theta tin foil 3uf200VDC to Miflex1uf 240VDC copper foil what are your thoughts will reducing the value to 1uf affect the bass and frequency response or should I go with a higher value than 3uf
I have placed the order for the jupiter copper paper in wax 3.3uf400VDC as for the other small caps I had replaced them long time back with the rike audio S2 Al in oil caps. I am also thinking of changing the audio theta .33uf 600VDC in the canary grand reference amp Does changing the amp caps also make a difference

Yes, definitely. As far as tube components go - wherever you have a cap in the signal path, replacing it higher quality cap will improve sound. DAC, amp, pre amp doesn't matter. Some may have a larger impact than others, but all will contribute.

My pre is going non stop. By days end on Sunday I’ll be at 75 hours. From then I’ll resume my standard operating procedure of powering down before hitting the sack.
