| Power supply caps Try Michael Percy Audio. He shows tow out of the three. Also has a 4700uf 63 VDC which will work fine.No affiliation, just always received great service. | |
| Power cord connectors In my case they did not make any difference in my tube phono as well as tube phono preamp. They did eliminate a strange ticking noise that my tube power amp was making.However they made a huge difference in both of my class D sub amps. Tightened u... | |
