I'm not that knowledgeable on the topic of caps, but aren't you supposed to replace it with a 200v cap? I had it recommended to me before purchasing to have the cathode cap changed to a Panasonic TS-ED 470uf/200v. I had no idea what that meant then, but now on the topic of 6fd7s, I think it was so I could use them?

I've used Panasonic FM's in my X-CAN v3 mods and they were great! So, I'm inclined to use those. But... what other alternatives would anyone suggest (those who have built or modified amps)???? I'm also not sure - I want to invest in very expensive Audio Note's, or similar. Any ideas??? |
