Hey Wayne,
As far as the old stuff goes. Sprague Vitamin-Q should be very reliable. What values? If I have any left, I can send you some. Don't open, dioxins? toxic oils inside. I now use inexpensive Illinois Cap brand metalized film polyprops from tubesandmore.com or Sprague 716P film and foil polyprops (with copper leads). The sound is good. I've been disappointed in many expensive designer caps quite often over the last 25 years and what I use now are inexpensive and sound good "to me". No arguments wanted or needed. JMO. jim..

Excellent, Jim, thanks for the offer. I may take you up on that. I'll look at the values I need (I think they're 0.22uF and 0.015uF) and get hold of you or just order some. Thanks for the tip!
