Any of these caps are fine. Both Vcap and Vitamin-Q are good.

There are 4 PP caps: C1, 2, 5, 6 0.1μ(with incdication of 104)400V.
Once you have replaced these caps, you will hear a huge difference in the sonic. You can modify the resistor with the Kiwame resistor later.

Kiwame resistors are from Japan and characterized by a lower noise than metal film resistors and by a more natural sound.

The power section is one of the special features of the TU-879S. The FET 2SK2750 plays a major role as the filter to reduce noise
