Those are so close I doubt it will be a noticeable difference it also may depend on where the caps are in the circuit. It’s worth a try. Post the schematic too

Using those values will theoretically mean a tiny bit more midrange and a tiny bit more low end when bass is maxed. In practise, as others have said, it will be difficult to hear a difference. I would use what you have without hesitation.
