    Yeah, I was contemplating something along those lines, but decided to stick with the values that Sansui used from the factory (they fitted 2.2uf bypass caps to 15000uf caps, so the 2uf is pretty close). I do have a bunch of 0.01uf caps so I can alway try these with the 2uf.

    If I decide to experiment a bit, I also have a big supply of ITT PMC 2R and ITT PMT 2R 4.7uf polypropylene capacitors in a beige-coloured moulded plastic case. These could be good candidates...

    Don't apologise for the photographs Pete. We love photos here on AoS, and yours are superb.

    Congratulations on the refurbishment. Your hard work will pay dividends and give you many happy hours of listening pleasure.

    Well done!
