0.47s should work but you'd want to test this on the bench before re-boxing, e.g. the e12 latch behavior. I tried 1ufs I'd around & my e12 latch was more touchy. You do not nee more capacitance there tho, so you should only notice the difference in the sound of the caps (rolloff is low enough w/0.22s).

Many CTHs were built w/1/8s in & out (e.g. they were/are in the BoM) to make the fit easier in the tiny hammond target box. It's a bit harder to fit 1/4" out + RCA in but many have done that as well (e.g. my avatar). There's no technical reason for these diffs, only difficulty of fitment.
Just wondering if there's any (dis)advantage if I bump the C4L/C4R to 0.47uf? Just found some 0.47uf Vit Q in the parts bin and they seem to fit just fine, not really any bigger than the 0.22uf that I thought of using.

Yeah I have one and I guess I need to go pick up another tomorrow. I guess adapters will work for now but I will eventually want to switch them out on the cth if I can. If not I will atleast have an amp to look at and study and hopefully be able to build my own. I know it was built way before the rev a specs. Did the original cth call for the 1/8 input/output? I cant imagine why this would be the only option the original builder went with.
