Consonance Reference 2.2 Auricap Mod

I have a Solen Cap Consonance Ref 2.2 CDP and need detailed information on the Auricap Mod. I would like to due the mod myself. I have seen updates using Mundorf SIO 2.2 uf 800V (very expensive) but I have Solen 3.9uf 400V caps. If I can't find detailed information. Can it still be sent out for the mods. I think the price was $300 for the mods. Which may be still worth it.

Thanks Ghosthouse I got in touch with Steve. I am going try Auricap replacements for the Solen caps. Steve said better bass & soundstaging. There are other mods I can try but for now one at a time.

Updated the Consonance Reference 2.2 Tube circuit.
Replaced the Solen 3.9 uf 400V caps with Auricap 4.0 uf 400V Auricaps. Replaced OPA 2604 opamps with OPA 2107 opamps. Made a huge difference in detail, soundstage and bass. A lot cleaner sounding. Well worth the price. Still need to change Wilma .1uf caps under tube and change filtered IEC socket. Wish I had a schematic.
