It is a known issue, and if you examine those caps on the units that are still working as they should, you will likely see cracks in their cases.I have been skeptical too... but then it happened to one of my A810 Studers.
Fortunately, it happened while it was here, at the factory, running some tape. Suddenly crazy smoke emanated, even though the machine continued working.
Here are the replaced parts. It IS a real issue, so I would definitely do it on your deck. The replacement parts are readily available from DigiKey and the job is not complicated.
