Sorry for the misunderstanding...

None of us, not even Will, has deleted the mixer box, which as you know contains two capacitors, one each in series with each arm of the secondary of the treble transformer. I don't think it would be safe to do that. But as you note, I found and purchased some Russian 8kV .01uF teflon film caps on eBay, and I have used those to replace the stock .015uF caps that are used by SL. IMO, the Russian caps sound better than the OEM ones.
Also, Will deleted the inductor in series with the SL bass transformer; I did not do that. I use a 1.5mH 12ga copper Alphacore air core ribbon inductor on the input side of the SL bass transformer.
