In Reply to: Could electrolytic capacitors in the signal path be a myth? posted by airtime on December 12, 2015 at 07:58:26:
Upfront, my knowledge of electronics is minimal.
I've read multiple times the recommendation to replace old electrolytics. Apparently as they age and deteriorate they can change value. But this advice seems to say just replace them with good quality modern electrolytics of the stated value. So are some suggesting replacement with non-electrolytics?
