Or, might buy your junker amp.


Honestly, putting old bad capacitors in there to replace existing old
bad capacitors does not seem like a step up.

Do it right. If you want to keep those nice metal cans, either use
brand new replacement cans (Antique Electronics Supply carries them),
or take the old cans out, scoop the guts out, and use RTV to mount some
new modern Panasonic capacitors inside the cases.

You put ROE caps in there, and you'll be right back where you started
in a couple years. The 450V Panasonics are not expensive and they are
solid and reliable. Get the 105'C versions.
