RE: Question about recapping a Dynaco ST70

Al
Putting in the exact that it originally had is insane.Those small original values are simply not enough to run that amp in this day and age when you have listening material in the 90db and 100db range...If you are wise,I would get an 80/40/30/20 and put the 40uf off the GZ34 and the 80uf on the other side of choke and the 30 and 20 for the other sections.If you bought the cap you have now,you can probably send it back and pay the difference and get the 80/40/30/20.
