Thanks, Chip! I'll give that a go.

I'm committed to film caps in the PS, these were just easy replacements and from what I'd read they would sound much better than existing ... and they did. The outboard PS will take some good size films, but the preamp chassis itself has zero real estate for anything like that so I'd like to find radial-lead, 1 3/8" films that could mount through the existing holes/clamps, but have not seen any candidates yet. I could also probably use round axial types with something close to that dia, but then I'd have to put the ground end up in the air out of the chassis with a wire running back down inside. Kind of kludgy.
