RE: Changing electrolytics in Audio Research D115

You really do not need to change the big blue caps unless they are leaking and/or causing hum/blowing fuses. If you bring the unit up slowly on a varic they should be good to go. If they function correctly(and do not draw excess current and explode ;-)) they will give you the same sound as replacements. By the way, the only big caps I every had a problem with was a brand new LCR, spewed crap everywhere.
