I'm pretty sure at this point I wasn't thinking and had 'dissipation factor' and dielectric absorption confused.
We use mostly Teflon coupling caps in our designs. Recently we ran a casual comparison between the Teflon and NPOs (through-hole with leads). The amps used were fully optioned M-60 Mk3.3s so had Caddock MM series resistors throughout; the only difference was the coupling caps. They were hard to tell apart- I would not want to try to do it blind! So that suggests to me that expectation bias is pretty strong with me in this situation. Since I like the Teflons and also wanted the NPOs to be good, I can't say which way the expectation had me leaning.
