RE: 2700uF 450V 85 degrees

Lee
I have 40 or more of those caps I bought brand new in Dayton about 12 years ago and they are 2700uf at 500vdc and I have some that are rated at 450vdc.The problem with those caps is that the ESR is out of sight and it dramatically affects the audio path being the audio rides on the DC rail that they supply.Since Wheezer introduced me to power supply film caps,I never had an inkling to use those monstrous pigs..
