Replacing caps in DAC

Are the Hi-Rel and AudioCaps poly?  That’s fine with me if they don’t need to be changed. Their values are: Hi-Rel: .01uf, .10uf, .047uf. Each@200v. AudioCaps (2) .47uf @100v.

Yes, poly; no need to change them. Just redo the electrolytics and you are good to go. Enjoy!

steakster:

I hope you will consider upgrading your DAC's fuse to a Synergistic Research "Black" fuse. This was a major sonic improvement in my Antelope DAC. As a nice bonus they are sold with a 30 day money back trial. Order from High - End Electronics, Apple Valley, Calif. or THE Cable Company, New Hope, Penn.

I think it is wonderful that you are upgrading your curren

David: I already installed a SR-Black in my amp.  That improvement motivated me to look inside my DAC.  No fuse.  A resistor is in line with the incoming AC.   This model was heavily modified by Bob Crump.  I'm ordering new caps from Michael Percy Audio.   Curiously, he owns an earlier version of the same DAC - designed by Damian Martin.    After recapping, I'd love to compare it to a current DAC.   Anybody living in OC?

Mouser has the Muse caps at a very attractive price.
