Re. Marantz Receiver Capacitors


Hello...I have a pristine 2285 receiver.  Kept in storage.  Can you visually tell if the large filter capacitors are getting bad?  thanks.

Sometimes they expand with age and begin to bulge and the tops look somewhat rounded. These would be bad. But the age of these caps should be replaced regardless. Better safe than sorry.
