Was considering replacing the power supply caps (Jamicon 10,000 uF 63v X 4) in my MF A3.5 (150/240W/ch at 8/4 ohms) with some of the Nichicon high-grade units of the same value. Could any folks out there kindly offer any opinions on whether there would likely be any meaningful sound quality improvement? Thanks in advance for any help.

IIRC, MF amps and preamps of that vintage used choke regulated PSs. /nt\, posted on May 24, 2015 at 08:08:57 | |

Evidently, MF dropped the choke after the 3.2cr. /nt\, posted on May 24, 2015 at 12:45:24 | |

Which MF integrated was well regarded? |
