1000pF would give -3dB at 40kHz, or -1dB at 20kHz. That's probably the limit. But many claim to hear subtle problems with 1/10th that capacitance, typically in "passive preamp" applications. I don't know why - possibly they are hearing the dielectric of the cable? - but it seems a good rule of thumb, to be cautious with more than 100pF on a Seduction or Eros output.
