Hey Wayne.

Im sorry I'm Smile not versed in understanding all the differences in capacitors like you are.

The 4 laid over caps on the driver board read "M caps" or "Mundorf supremes".

The four smaller ones are- rubycon black gates (two closest together on driver board) and the two farther apart on the board just have an "M" on them.

Honestly, when I ordered, I wasn't sure what to request as far as cap upgrades,but Brian offered an "oil and paper caps" upgrade.
Perhaps those are the upgraded caps?

I'm having trouble with an extra bag of components (attached pic)that came with the kit, that is not illustrated or described in the build manual.index.php?t=getfile&id=1840&private=0
When I opened the box upon delivery, this bag was ripped open, and its contents were strewn throughout the "popcorn packing" within the box.
I think I was able to recover all the components, although they are quite small Shocked.

I have tried to communicate with Brian (through e-mail) from Audionote kits about if I have lost any of the parts, or how to implement them, but I have not gotton a response.
He did say he was going away last week, would be back Monday (yesterday),
so hopefully he can help me out.

The extra bag contains another pcb, with some extra resistors and a few caps. I believe it is for the "power amp" version of the kit (the one I ordered), where no volume knob is used, but I'm not sure.

Regards!
