Here's a couple of before/after shots. New capacitors were installed throughout the unit.
Note the four yellow caps in each picture. These are special audio caps in the pre-amp
section. They are the only original caps remaining. I did not change these, because I did
not want to change the tonal qualities of the amp.
I used high quality computer grade caps in this unit (mostly Nichicon). They are a vast
improvement over the original caps. We have come a long way in capacitor technology.
Thanks to the high-tech industry, capacitors must run quieter and be more compact.
You can see the generally smaller size of the replacement caps. Some are much smaller...
