RE: recapping my amps...

thanks, Dave, solid advice! I did replace the couplers with K42y's I had on hand, as I brought it up I was getting a lot of noise from the 6BL8's, turns out it was the pyramids leaking as replacing them totally cleared up the noise issue (sounded like fat frying in a hot pan), so I am somewhat thinking that the other pyramids may also be going bad, I believe someone here mentioned them as not very good caps. Also, I have heard conflicting info on the ceracaps, some say replace, others say not....
