Hello there! I need some help to upgrade the capacitor in my La figaro 339. Please correct me as I know next to nothing appart that there are lethal voltage all around.
The 4 little purple caps I think are the "lining" caps (don't know the name), they are 220µF 200V each.
The 6 bigger purple caps are the "power filter" caps I believe 820µF 200V each.
And there are 4 hidden "coupling" caps 63µF 350V each, I believe that they are bypassed by those rectangular blue caps. And if I swap them for MKP caps is it correct that I won't need to bypass them anymore with caps?
I want to increase the value of the coupling caps to 100µF each as I want more bass.
I choosed those MKP caps:
I want to change all the electrolytics caps to MKP but the 220µF ones are problematic because of size, so for them maybe I will just use Vishay BC electrolytic of a bigger value.
Is it good to increase the µF for the power filter and line capacitors?
Also using these MKP instead of the lytics 220µF is it going to upgrade the sound:?
I have so many questions, I hope someone will chime and help!
Cheers!
