I acquired a pair less than a year ago, now that I am done with my last tube radio project I decide to put the twins on the bench.
First question: now that recapping is the 1st order of business, where exactly do you buy twist lock caps? The stock are 1" and I want them to be 500V rated, but all I can find even at 450V is 1-3/4" type which I am nor sure I could mount.
I could obviously leave the existing ones for looks and put the new regular hi-ripple cans underneath (and that would be a heck of a lot cheaper) but somehow I want to do my due diligence and see if I could buy a properly looking replacements.
