Hello guys,
my main question is about the two original main electrolytic capacitors, which were 8000 µF at 50 volts, and I replaced them with 8200 µF at 50 volts. I measured the positive and negative voltages, and they are both ±46.00 DC volts, which leaves only a 4-volt DC margin. The biggest issue was the space between the two capacitors on the main circuit board—I could have gone bigger, but there was no room.
Sincerely Richard
