Coupling Caps - Cary 300sei

Greetings,

I'm getting ready to send my 300sei back to Cary for a routine check-up, and while it's on the bench I figure it would be a good time for them perform some upgrades.

Cary offers replacement coupling caps in a couple of options: Jensen Copper Foil/Paper-in-Oil/Pure Silver and ClarityCap MR.

Question, for those who have first hand experience with these 2 caps, what were your impressions, was the change worthwhile or was the change just different but not really what you would consider an improvement?

Basically I'm trying to decide if I should just leave the amp stock or if it's worthwhile to have Cary swap out the caps.

Also thinking about having Cary install Hexfred rectifiers, Grayhill switch and Kimber Kable wiring at same time.

Thanks a bunch.
