Possible upgrade of a tube amp




I have (among others) a Chinese 34i integrated amplifier. It sounds pretty good - agile and dynamic, but sometimes tends to be bright. I attach two pics showing black shiny caps (.47uf MC-Caps looking like Mundorfs).

I am wondering whether I can upgrade the sound, in particular, cure some brightness if I replace the stock caps with .47uf/600V Vit-Q caps (if I manage to find them) or at least Russian K40Y caps (I did not see 600V caps anywhere) or more expensive V-Caps?

Thanks for your thoughts.
