Russ, thanks you and also thanks for not "talking down" to someone who is not familiar with this stuff. I was also wondering how much one could stray from the values printed on the caps. I was having an "H" of a time finding ANY 200uF 40V caps. I like the idea of improving the quality, since I did that once on a pair of PSB, with guidance, and the results were just awesome - the character of the speakers idn't change, but the clarity was just much better, cleaner.The black cap on the left doesn't look electrolytic to me, looks like it is full of plastic (at least it hasn't metal tops like I am used to seeing). It measures 2 3/8" long and just under an inch in diameter.
