It really depends on where in the circuit the cap is being used. Normally, a 500V silver mica or 630V mylar cap will be fine, the exceptions being in the plate circuit of the audio output tube(s), where a 1000V cap should be used, and across the AC line or from AC to chassis ground where a X or Y rated safety cap should be used.
