RE: Stromberg ASR-433 Phono Upgrade

Replace the two .047 & .1uF with Russian K40Y-9 @ 200 volt. The 470pF & 3300pF can be replaced with silver mica or polystyrene capacitors. Use an audio grade 50uF on the first tube cathode such as Elna Silmic II.

Rolling 12AX7s will finish the upgrade. I noticed phono stages prefer crystal clear & neutral tubes. Brimar CV4004 or less expensive Westinghouse short narrow (not the wide ladder type) plate sound good in many vintage phono amps.
