Push Pull tube amp kit from China
#8

I may go ahead and replace the 2 big power supply electrolytics. They didn't look that impressive and will be hit hard right off the bridge. I couldn't find any of the brands mentioned (in the size and value) but I did find a few CDE caps. Most all say "from China". The smaller ones on the PC board "appear" to be operated well below their rated values, and shouldn't be hit with much ripple current. I think the B+ is in the 250v neighborhood and they are 400v caps. I did a hunt for some WIMA caps and found quite a few offerings. But I have a dumb question, just what is WIMA? A brand or type?

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
