RE: CJ before and after

Just looking at the photos, I cannot say whether or not I would think the sound quality has been improved, but I CAN say that you are a very neat worker. Your installation looks at least as good as that of the factory, perhaps even better. Congrats on that. Wish I was as skilled in the art.

As to your penchant for Mundorf capacitors, I do like the silver oil and the silver gold oil and their power supply polypropylenes, but I would only wonder whether using ALL Mundorfs might be too much of a good thing. However, you, not I, are the best judge of that. I think those yellow "CJ" film capacitors are re-labeled RELs, but whether they are polyprop film or metallized film or polystyrene film and foil, I cannot say. Some of those, especially if they are polystyrene, might be at least equal to or better IMO than those white Mundorfs, which I think are metallized film types. I've got a few for PS use, haven't tried them.
