Capacitor Voltage

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

I'm going thru a VINTAGE Kenwood KA-7100 integrated amp.

Caps LOOK fine but I'm scared to apply voltage to the unit until I re-cord and get some contact cleaner ready.

But ONE question. While the PS Caps LOOK fine, no bulges or leaks, I'm looking for a backup.
Stock pieces are ELNA, a good brand.
I can get Nichicon, in 50v with but can't get EXACT lead spacing.

What If I could get HIGHER voltage? Would that make a difference? Amp doesn't or DIDN'T run hot so I'm going to stick with 85c.

Any suggestions for a good 6800uf cap? NTE any good? I think I can source those locally.....
Too much is never enough

Using higher than rated voltage caps is fine - 1973shovel 06:27:07 01/03/21 (0)
