Power supply caps

The Panny's are nice. I've used them before, but my power supply cap of choice is Nichicon, if you can find them.

Michael Percy has the Nichicon.

And as stated in my first post two of the three are exact matches. The third is a 63v rating insted of a 50v.

Change caps with good caps ranging from the stock value to three times as large. Also, be sure to use the stock voltage rating or higher when choosing new caps. Do keep the same value or go as high as doubling the value of the power supply and decoupling caps.

Hey Mental, can you explain what increasing the voltage value does? Is the uF rating the most important?
Thanks

Increasing the voltage of a capacitor offers greater overvoltage protection, to the cap. Power supplies are generally designed to specific and balanced parameters. Thus; If you intend to increase the capacitance of your filter caps(beyond say 20-30%); you should also look at increasing the amperage rating of the associated rectifiers. Many have blown their diodes/bridges, via turn-on/recharge current overloads. Also- consider the possibility of damage to the power transformer, as a result of the same. It would be prudent to check with the component's manufacturer, regarding the transformer's current limitations. Something else to consider, since you are thinking about the power supply of a device with low current demands: (http://tech.juaneda.com/en/articles/powersupply.html) Something easy to accomplish, inexpensive and with great sonic benefit: replace the diodes or bridge in your power supply, with Cree Schottky diodes.
