To be honest, I wasn't sure WHAT might be gained, thus the inquiry; my assumption is that the stock capacitors are of lesser quality than the proposed replacements. The work would be done by me, the Nichicon KS are about nine dollars apiece (X4) from DigiKey. They WILL fit physically. Not sure if the PS is regulated. Thanks again for any guidance.Mark in NC
