Is the amp a Cary ??If so, and IF I got the name correct ( "if" is a BIG word ) you may want to speak to Mike Samra, who greatly reduced the amounts of uF in the filter, and got significantly better sonic results as I recall from his post.
Generally speaking "today" many would use 200 uF total, or less, in such a B+ filter !!!
Additionally, we have very reasonably priced and small sized " new technology " film caps available today, that would be a BIG step up sonically, from any electrolytic. These high voltage films are called DC LINK caps, made by WIMA, Vishay, Panasonic, etc. Ultra high in audio performance.
Mikey, you reading this post ??
