Cleanbox mod question

[Canadian_Dude]

I just got back form my local electronic component store and picked up some new caps for my cleanbox. I bought two types because I forgot which ones are better. The first is a 63V 1uF Metal Polyester Box Capacitor that was 3 bucks for 2. The second is a 50V 1uF Ceramic Cap that was 5 bucks for 2. Which is the better choice here?

This is the in room response before:


And this is after the mod:


Haven't listened to anything normal yet but it doesn't look much different. I think I had the levels set at 75dB before and 80dB this time though.

Well after only a few minutes of music I can definately hear more bass and I am liking it a alot

At 10Hz in your plot, I see about a 15dB (or more) difference. I consider that different.
