I do like removing caps alltogether , shorting them on front and using long wire.
Why now only 5 caps instead of 6/7 that are shown in earlier pictures on this thread. Is 5 now indeed correct?
I cleaned up after reading the thread fully to make 1 clear post. Can you mark the points, make a more detailed picture instruction?
If not I will do it myself as after making this summary I now understand what needs to be done. It its 21 steps.
Make numbers and say what you did. I allreadt made the index, just number the pictures on high res pictures.
This if for Front faced mod with long wires. Glue capacitors at the back with hot glue to make it neat.

3. You shorted only red as you shorted just for stereo, correct? Otherwise one can remove all caps and short them all if one wants surround.
What I find weird is that we remove/short 12 caps and only put 5 back and still card will work fully and better than before. Why is that?
