I just picked one of these amps up and it will be my first rebuild project. It has a couple of broken can type caps that need to be replaced (I will probably replace all electrolytics). I was wondering if I could get a recomendation as far as brand goes. I have used JJ caps with good results but am open to anything. Also I was wondering if anyone else has a similar model amp and could tell me what to expect when I get this up and running?

Hi John

Any brand, modern electrolytic caps, will work. Be sure voltage rating is the same or higher than original. Capacity may be slightly higher if original value isn't available. Watch polarity of the caps.
