RE: 4uF...

I agree that in theory the GZ34 and GZ37 should be roughly equivalent. In practice however I have found the GZ37 to be much more robust. I had a pair of Quicksilver KT88s in the 1980s (they had a first cap of several hundred microfarads) and the GE GZ34s that were easily available at that time for a nominal cost would only last a few months. I eventually changed to the GZ37 that were $16 from Ned Carlsen and never had a failure with them.
