This is a hard one to explain. These caps are identified as 10X, 10Y and 10Z.

10Z negative connects to center tap of high voltage winding.
10Y positive connects to cathode on your 5Z4 rectifier.
10X negative connects to heavy ground line in the schematic. Positive to two resistors toward left.
I would use 3 - 10 mfd @ 450 volt caps for replacement.

:Hi: I have a Crosley model 655 that has three 8 mfd electrolitics that I would like to replace. On other radios that I've worked on the negative has been to ground but this one seems to have the negatives going to the center tap of the power transformer. I don't want to wire it incorrectly. Is this correct or am I not reading the schematic correctly. Many thanks. Al
