The datasheet has the signal entering the positive side of the cap, then it says to use film caps. After that point, it all just comes down to an issue of "this capacitor type versus that," doesn't it?
here is a picture of Vinnie's imod caps inside:




as you can see he just glued the NX Hi-Q's caps in the corner and that's it.

I've done mode to my 60GB photo by actually incorporating two NX Hi-Q caps and four resistors in the phone jack PC board. pics latter!
