Help with Bridge Rectifier Upgrade Audiolab 6000 CDT

Posted by Jonesy on July 12, 2021 at 13:10:29:

One of the internet recommended mods for this transport is to replace the two existing DF02M bridge rectifiers with axial diodes.

I'm eyeing a couple choices at Partsconnexion:

Vishay Telefunken Diode 1A 1000V SF4007
Vishay Diode 3A 1500V BY228TR

Or from Hi-Fi Collective:

MUR1100E 1A 1000V Ultrafast Diode

To be honest I thought I would be looking at some sort of $$$ audiophile type bridge rectifiers or using radial diodes, but there's really not a lot of room in on the PCB, and the only mod I have come across uses the axial type. Albeit the actual axial diode is never named, so that's why I'm reaching out for any input here? (I've never replaced rectifiers or diodes as an upgrade.)

Cheers!
